Have you ever found yourself struggling to identify what you really want? Or felt dread at the prospect of asking for a raise? If so, you are not alone. There are many complicated factors that prevent us from identifying (and asking for) what we really want, all of which can be difficult to address when you lack the proper knowledge or insight. In today’s episode, we examine all of this and more by unpacking four key questions to help you identify what you truly want and how to go about asking for it. Tuning in, you’ll gain insight into why we don’t ask for what we want, why we should ask for what we want, how to figure out what we want, and finally, how to ask for what we want. We explore how self-reflection and self-knowledge can help you identify what you truly want before discussing some of the positive effects of asking for it, like improved confidence, clarity, and communication. Our conversation also covers why not getting what you want provides you with an opportunity to learn along with helpful strategies that will empower you to overcome your fears and communicate what you want. Be sure to tune in for a comprehensive breakdown of how to figure out what you want, how to ask for it, and everything in between!
