I heard a while back that, "Women don't ask for help, we just pedal faster!" I am SO guilty of this!

Have you ever thought that having a mentor and being a mentee is a proactive way for "Asking for Help, before you need it" It's taking care of you. Many women will look at taking care of everyone around them before they do something nice for themselves.

Like for me, if I've had a bad day, I have two methods of operation:

• I either go find a big cookie and then feel guilty the rest of the day that when I walk in the door to my apartment I confess to my husband immediately – I actually look down at the floor – I'm such a loser.
• Or I buy a present for someone else.

So instead of doing something nice for me….I do something destructive to myself or blow money on someone else. I know I'm not alone; I'e talked to several women who do the same thing.
