Podcast Clip: “Why do we refuse to ask for help?”

February 17, 2026

Why do is it so hard for us to get help for what we’re going through? Even if we see someone we know who’s in therapy, or who’s taking control of their life, why do we just watch them and not try it ourselves?

Is it apathy? Laziness? Settling into mediocrity?

In this short clip, Michael Dixon asked Jen Wozny, “Why do we refuse to ask for help?”

Hear Jen’s answer—it ranges from the regular ideas to the very spiritual. It also includes the idea that if someone’s not getting the help they need, then maybe they’re not supposed to.

Hi, I’m Jen Wozny, a Holistic Energy Healer blending together Reiki, Shamanism, Psychic Healing, Life Coaching, Holistic Guidance, Yoga, Psychology, and trauma studies into each appointment with clients.

I used to have a “perfect” life on the outside, but inside I felt empty. I began to use healing tools, and they made me feel better. Eventually, healing myself was my highest priority. I quit my job, let everything go, and let Spirit guide me on a four-year road trip across North America: This was my Shamanic Initiation and soul healing journey. That process trained me in many different healing modalities, which I now bring to you.

Because I know too many people with PTSD/Complex PTSD, and because trauma was part of my own journey, I have made myself trauma aware through both lived experience and professional CE credits. I also work primarily virtually—so we can work together wherever you are in the world.
