EP134- Asking for help is a sign of strength.

Lets us know your thoughts thru TEXT!

Strength isn’t found in going it alone. It’s found in knowing when to ask for help.

For so long, many of us have carried a quiet belief that needing support somehow makes us weak—or worse, a failure. In this episode, I reflect on that false narrative and how deeply it can shape the way we show up in life.

My own journey from stubborn self-reliance to embracing vulnerability was anything but easy. Yet, it changed me. I’ve learned there’s a difference between asking for help after giving your best effort and leaning on others as a way to avoid responsibility. Real strength, I’ve come to see, is about admitting our limitations while still holding ourselves accountable.

What surprised me most was how much richer life became once I started opening up. Inviting in different perspectives not only sharpened my problem-solving but also connected me with people who share the same values and growth mindset. When we surround ourselves with others on a similar path, we build networks of encouragement and accountability that lift everyone higher.

And then there’s the responsibility of giving back. The wisdom we gain through struggle isn’t just for us—it’s often the exact encouragement someone else is waiting to hear. Paying forward the help we’ve received creates a ripple effect of strength and compassion.

So whether you’re navigating challenges in your career, relationships, or your own personal growth, I invite you to pause and reflect: what if saying “I need help” is one of the bravest things you can do? What if vulnerability isn’t the opposite of strength, but the very thing that allows it to grow?

You don’t have to walk this path alone. None of us do.
