Why does asking for help still feel like another thing to manage?
In this episode of No Permission Necessary, Jill and Molly talk about the resentment that builds when help only shows up after you ask for it, and why having to ask is often the most exhausting part.
Because sometimes the problem is not the task itself.
It is the fact that you had to notice it, name it, explain it, assign it, and then manage how it gets done.
This conversation explores:
• Why asking for help can feel so frustrating
• The difference between helping and taking ownership
• How the mental load shows up at home and at work
• Why silent scorekeeping creates resentment
• How control and perfectionism can make help harder to receive
• Why done is sometimes better than perfect
If you’ve ever asked for help and still felt like the project manager, this episode is for you.
