[Solo Sesh] Why Women Don't Ask for Help The Embodied Baddie Podcast
-
- Self-Improvement
Are you afraid to ask for help? Do you feel guilty delegating responsibility, even to team members whom you hired to support you?
Often this hesitation is subconscious. For some people, like many of Chrystal’s clients, it doesn’t even occur to them to ask for help. For others, like one of Chrystal’s high-powered clients, she feels guilty asking members of her team to do things. This is predominantly a problem for women who increasingly take on a type of masculine energy which leads to burnout, whereas the more feminine energy is more open to receiving. For others, they have been burned by asking for help in the past and are afraid to reach out again.
Just as a pilot would never feel guilty for delegating duties to flight attendants, bosses should never be afraid to ask for help from their team. Even Chrystal herself had to work on this, and it will take some time and effort to shift your mindset, but once you learn to receive help, it will be a gamechanger!

Quotes
• “This episode is all about why women don't ask for help. I have so many things I want to talk about in this and so many examples. Because it's honestly a problem. It's a real problem.” (4:41 | Chrystal)
• “It's the pilot’s job to get us to our destination. That's the pilot’s job. They're the captain of that ship, OK, they're in charge. And they aren't feeling guilty that the flight attendants have other jobs.” (12:57 | Chrystal)
• “A lot of women have become more masculine and have taken on more masculine traits. And what that does is burn us the hell out. So it's a lot of hustle, it's a lot of go-go-go, a lot of force, a lot of push, rather than ease and flow.” (17:26 | Chrystal)
• “That's something that I work on still: reminding myself that I get to receive, it's okay to receive. So, if I get compliments, or if someone wants to give me money, or do something nice for me, instead of saying, ‘No, it's okay. I've got it,’ I instead say, ‘Thank you. Yes, thank you. I receive that.’ It's very uncomfortable, but it's starting to feel really good in my system.” (24:20 | Chrystal)
