It’s Not Just You... The Fear Behind Asking for Help (And How To Fix It) | Ghizlan Guenez
She has built the life. The career. The reputation for having it together. And somewhere along the way, doing it all herself stopped being a choice and became the only way she knew how to operate.
This episode is not about learning to be less independent. It is about what that independence has quietly been costing her and the one shift that changes everything about what she is able to receive.
Ghizlan Guenez, founder of F.Force, joins Erika for a second conversation that goes somewhere their first episode did not. If you have ever caught yourself thinking:
"It is just easier if I do it myself"
"I want more but something keeps stopping me"
"I know I want to be taken care of sometimes but admitting that feels wrong"
"I have been so focused on achieving that I do not recognise myself anymore"
"I feel like there is a block but I cannot work out if it is real or something I created"
Then this episode is for you. In this conversation, Erika and Ghizlan cover:
- Why the most independent, hardworking women are actually the ones who most want to be taken care of and why that is not a contradiction
- The real reason asking for help feels like jumping off a cliff and what is actually underneath it
- What your independence might be quietly costing you in love, abundance, and receiving
