To me there's this fine line that I learned growing up between a white lie and a lie. The truth is, you maybe just don't want to go. The lie is, I'm not feeling that well, or something else came up, and it's just how I was raised.
Ever felt like asking for help is a sign of weakness? Michael Stoller challenges this notion in a deeply personal episode of 'MY BLUEPRINT: Struggle Towards Emotional Sobriety'. After a harrowing experience with appendicitis, Michael found himself grappling with the need to lean on others. Despite his initial resistance and pride, he came to understand the strength in vulnerability.
He dives into the societal norms that often keep us from reaching out and the fear of rejection that lurks behind our reluctance. Michael’s reflections touch on the tricky balance between honesty and deceit when we turn down invitations or share our needs. He makes a compelling case for breaking free from shame and pride, highlighting that asking for help is not about weakness but about self-awareness and growth.
This episode is a heartfelt reminder that vulnerability can be a powerful tool in our journey towards emotional sobriety.
