Asking for help can be so, well, helpful. Yet many people (Janine and Shannon included) have difficulty asking for help. In this episode we explore how life can be better when you seek help. This episode includes a special (surprise!) guest appearance by Mike, Shannon's husband, who is an asking-for-help ninja. He shares some of his insights on the whys and hows of seeking help. Discussion topics include: • How perfectionism can get in the way of asking for help • The ins and outs of asking for directions • Shannon and Janine’s adventure in asking for help when they had car difficulties in Utah • Why it’s a good practice to ask for help even when it's difficult • Mike’s strategy for asking for help (hint: it’s always a conversation, not just a question) • How just by asking Mike finds out that he needs help with things he doesn’t even know about • Mike's view that he doesn’t just ask for help, he gets clarification of the problem. • A couple of approaches that might make it a little easier to ask for help. • Shannon and Janine’s promised experiment with asking for help
