192 / How To Ask For Help with Dr. Cynthia Bentzen-Mercer
In this episode, we cover a topic that I've been historically bad at.\xa0\nAsking for help.\xa0\nHow do we learn to ask for help? Well, we ask for help. So I\u2019ve invited an expert.\nDr. Cynthia Bentzen-Mercer is the co-founder of Zeal of the Heel, a business executive, human capital strategist, author, and executive coach. Cynthia, along with Kimberly Rath, worked together to co-author their book \u201cNow, Near, Next\u201d, an essential guidebook for women to promote their skills to accelerate their careers. I\u2019m sure each of them could have written this alone, but in the spirit of collaboration (which is a nice word we use a lot in business that basically means asking for help) they did it together. And Cynthia is here to help us get better at asking for help!\nI\u2019m going to practice the learnings because action builds confidence and practice makes progress. Will you please help me increase the reach and credibility of this podcast by leaving a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify? YOUR review matters. It contributes to how our podcast gets ranked across the globe, it helps us get bigger and better guests, and it gives us feedback \u2013 which is very tough to get in any other way.\nNow it\u2019s your turn to practice. Where would you benefit from asking for help, and who will you ask? The people who love and respect you WANT to help\u2026 sometimes it\u2019s just figuring out how they can help best and having the courage to ask.\n\nConnect with Cynthia:\nWebsite: www.zealoftheheel.com\xa0\nLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/zealoftheheel/\xa0\nFB: https://www.facebook.com/zealoftheheel\xa0\nYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Tnbt9zDaZc\xa0\nIG: https://www.instagram.com/zealoftheheel/\xa0\nBook: https://www.zealoftheheel.com/book/now-near-next\xa0\n\nLike what you heard?
