How To Ask For What You Need Without Apology (Reshare)
Description
Episode Overview
Women are often socialized to present as if they need nothing from the world. While the spirit of independence is inspiring, the reality is that as humans we do need things. It isn't about weakness, it's about humanity. Today, in a powerful reshared episode, Jen and Annie talk with clinical social worker Mel Bosna to explore human needs and why they matter.
We'd also like to announce that we are bringing back our incredibly popular workshop in May—Cut the Crap: Simplify Weight Loss and Get Out of Your Own Way. We'll be going live with you all to deliver a little real talk, a little tough love, but best of all, help you clear out all the clutter you have about weight loss, nutrition, exercise… and SIMPLIFY the process.
