Welcome back to The Selah Entrepreneur podcast. Today's episode is filled with valuable insights and lessons learned from my morning walks with my dogs. We'll delve into the concept of "asking for what you need" and discuss why it's okay to prioritize yourself and your business.

In this episode, I'm sharing my personal journey of rediscovering the power of asking for what I need and how it has helped me take care of my senior dog, Oliver.

We'll explore the struggles of being a people pleaser and the impact it can have on both our personal and professional lives.

We'll also discuss the importance of simplifying and streamlining various aspects of our lives, from caregiving responsibilities to marketing strategies. I'll provide practical tips on how to evaluate what is working and address any kinks in the system.

Throughout the episode, we'll touch on the delicate balance between accommodating others and prioritizing ourselves. I'll open up about my experiences with clients, self-care, and the eye-opening moment when I realized that I can meet both my senior dog's needs and my own.

Lastly, we'll explore the challenges women, entrepreneurs, and caregivers face with the tendency to be people pleasers and accommodators. I'll share strategies for finding this balance and the importance of asking for what you need, even when it feels uncomfortable.

So, grab a cup of tea, put on your walking shoes, and join me on this trail of wisdom and self-discovery. It's time to embrace the power of asking for what you need in order to create a thriving and balanced life as an entrepreneur. Let's dive in!
