You are welcome, Gisselle! Do you mind sharing what you are going through now? It would be valuable for me and others to understand, at first, that we are not alone dealing with the same issues, and second to have different perspectives

Good to reinforce that asking for help is not a sign of weakness; and that surfacing both feminine and 'masculine' skills is the right way to live life fully.

I think we all understand that there is nothing wrong about asking for help, but when it comes to opening mouth to actually say the words, those word become the hardest to pronounce. In most cases it's rooted to childhood experiences and upbringing, especially for those that had to become independent too early.
