Have you ever stood at the precipice of asking for help, but couldn't bring yourself to take that final step? That paralyzing feeling of vulnerability might be more universal than we realize.
When I lost everything I owned to a storage auction over an $800 debt, I faced a brutal choice: ask for help or let go of a decade's worth of memories and possessions. The anxiety of putting others in an uncomfortable position—of them having to say no, or saying yes when they couldn't afford to—led me to choose loss over vulnerability. It's a decision that sparked profound reflection on why asking for help feels so impossibly difficult, despite how simple others make it sound.
This raw, unfiltered conversation explores what happens when financial hardship forces us to reconsider what matters most. Would you rather lose all your money or all your memories? Before my storage auction, I might have chosen differently. But now I understand that sometimes, in our society, money is what protects our memories in the first place.
Despite this setback, I'm moving forward with intentional growth, expanding my consulting firm Wrap Shit With P to include VA services for creatives and businesses. My approach isn't about aggressive marketing or rapid scaling—it's about moving with purpose, humility, and faith that the right opportunities will find me as I continue building authentically.
Whether you're navigating your own losses, struggling with asking for help, or building a business that aligns with your values rather than external expectations, this episode offers solidarity in your journey. Join the conversation on social media—tell me which you'd choose to lose: your money or your memories? And let's talk honestly about why asking for help feels so much harder than it should.
