“I should be strong enough to do it on my own.”

I told myself that lie for a very long time. It felt so selfish to ask for help. I decided it was easier to try doing it on my own than to live with the guilt of burdening others. That insistence on doing things myself almost resulted in the death of my business, though.

The lie of having to do it all is powerful. We often resist asking for help, believing it to be a sign of weakness, when in truth, it’s simply a way to step into freedom and become stronger in every area of life.

Three years ago, after having a breakdown on the way home from a Fourth of July family BBQ, I asked for help. I hired people on my team. I asked family members for help with my kids. I hired a coach. I went to a therapist. Everything in my business and my life changed. I dropped the guilt, stepped into freedom, and became stronger 💪🏻

If you want to show up as the best mom you can be, and the best entrepreneur you can be, you have to learn to ask for help. So how can YOU ask for help this week?

Strong people ask for help.
