#243 How to Ask For Help

BREAK UP BESTIE
About this episode

Across all episodes of this podcast I talk about how important it is to ask for help from the people and resources around you, and in this episode we're talking about how to ask for help. Which may seem obvious to some but if you're like me asking for help can be extremely difficult, so in this episode we're talking about why you need to be specific in your asks, how to ask in a way that will serve you, and what kinds of things you can be asking for help on.
