Paul Quinn joins me to talk about why asking for what you want feels so uncomfortable for so many people—and how much we leave on the table because of it. We explore the idea of the “big ask,” why people often want to be asked more than we realize, and how Clarity and respect can completely change the outcome of a request.
Paul shares real-life stories that show how asking can strengthen Relationships, open doors, and help us better understand our own needs.
We also talk about how to handle hearing “no” without taking it personally, and why asking is empowering even when the answer isn’t yes.
