This episode at Feather & Foundation we discuss our WOW word- ASK! Such a simple word, and yet can seem so heavy depending on the situation, topic or circumstances. You can control the ASK, not the response or results. If asking is hard for you, this episode is especially for you to help you, encourage you to not miss out on an ask, because of fear or worry. Learn that a no- is not the end of the world, and that you can flip it around and just move on. Is there something you need to ASK for? Someone you need to ASK something? May this inspire you to just ASK!
While I don't struggle with asking now in my life, I share a time when I did and the lessons and tips I learned. When we ask- we can learn a lot- by the response- but also about ourselves in the willingness to be uncomfortable, or scare, we can celebrate the courage of the ask. We can only control the asks. Not the response or results. If you let the fear of asking to paralyze you, do you ever wonder what you miss out? What if behind the ask was the very thing you wanted, needed, or desired- or it blew your mind in the most spectacular way???? We often play both sides of the conversation (fear in the ask; and then play the doubt in the response). The answer will always be "no" or "nothing"- 100% of the time if we don't ask. There is power in the ASK.
