Mastering the Skill of Asking for Help

with Ashley Usiskin

About This Class

Have you ever found it hard to ask for help at work? Maybe you’ve thought, “I can handle it,” or “I don’t want to bother anyone.” But when you don’t reach out, you’re actually increasing your own stress levels. Your creativity, productivity, and relationships can all take a hit when you don’t ask for the support you need. 

Now, imagine if asking for help was your superpower. Picture the boost in your performance, getting more done with less stress, and all the extra time for the good stuff—like building solid, trusting relationships—both in your professional and personal life.

Asking for help also gives you the chance to let someone else feel good about lending a hand. It’s all about that awesome feeling we get from helping each other out, thanks to our brain’s love for oxytocin boosts. Sounds pretty great, right? Let’s make that a reality together.

In this class you will:

  • Dive Deep: Uncover why we’re wired to lend a hand and how tapping into this can change the game at work.
  • Break Through Barriers: Pinpoint what’s holding you back and discover strategies to get over these hurdles.
  • See the Big Picture: Understand the game-changing advantages of reaching out and how it can revolutionize your work dynamic.
  • Craft Your Strategy: Tailor a unique, foolproof method for asking for help that feels right to you.
  • Make It Happen: Bring these new skills into your day-to-day and watch how they open doors and build bridges.

A spark is something quite small and, by itself, not very powerful. But a spark has the ability to ignite. An idea is like a spark; alone it is just a set of words, but it too can ignite. A great idea can inspire others to dream bigger. Let us all work together to ignite something greater than ourselves.

Let us all be a Spark of Optimism.
