Episode 53: Asking

This week on The Living Experiment, we're talking about Asking — the art and importance of making requests based on your authentic desires, and the role that sort of enlightened asking can play in helping you create a more satisfying life. We explore the perceived risks and fears of loss we tend to encounter in asking other people for anything — whether favors, changes, or resources.  We also address the opportunities that asking gives us to create more intimacy and connection with others, even as it helps us build a more compassionate and courageous relationship with ourselves.   Finally, we suggest some tips for more successful asking experiences, and we offer you some experiments to help you explore the transformative possibilities that asking might open up in your own life.   More show notes and resources at http://livingexperiment.com/asking/
