    Ep 95: How Well Do You Ask For Support?
    Oct 29 2024
    As with most behaviors, our relationship to asking for support was conditioned from an early age. Many people find asking for support vulnerable, and they often avoid the discomfort of asking. On the other hand, many people are masters at giving support. Interestingly, giving support without equally asking for support is not sustainable and eventually depletes well-being. Learning to ask for support is vital to well-being. In this episode, we explore clarity and awareness around asking for support. Common disempowering relationship to asking for support Early conditioning Connection between acts of service and acts of suffering Clarity of our needs Breakthroughs in asking for support How you’re being when asking for support How you’re being whether you get the support or not Looking for opportunities in the act of asking for support Links mentioned: The 5 Love Languages Quiz: https://5lovelanguages.com/quizzes ------------------------- CONNECT WITH JEFF: Website: https://jeffmillercoaching.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffmillercoaching/ IG: @jeffmillercoaching FB: https://www.facebook.com/jeff.miller.7965 Books: https://www.amazon.com/author/jeffmillercoaching CONNECT WITH TATSU: Website: https://tatsuyafushimi.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tatsuyafushimi/ IG: @tatsuyafushimi FB: https://www.facebook.com/tatsuya.fushimi.9/ Books: https://www.amazon.com/author/tatsuyafushimi

    Ep 94: The Habitual Fixer
    Oct 23 2024
    Many people are conditioned to focus on problems and head straight for solutions. While this might be useful in overcoming dire situations, most situations are not dire in modern times. This behavior in normal day-to-day situations, personal or professional, can lead to disconnection, misunderstanding, and disempowerment. In this episode, we discuss various perspectives and layers concerning the fixer habit. Tendency to jump to the solution of a perceived problem Awareness of why we tend to want to fix Generational beliefs that certain things are broken or wrong Tying a mindset of fixing to the value you bring Avoidance of pain or discomfort What if there was nothing to fix? Who are you being?
