"While most people acknowledge that they are afraid of getting a 'NO,' we don't talk enough about how hesitant we are to follow up a 'YES.' People wonder if putting pressure on folks to do what they committed to might 'ruin it,' causing the person to withdraw their 'Yes.' Or might it make them hesitant to ever say 'Yes' again if you're actually going to expect them to deliver? Can you see how this would leave us with just the hope and prayer that people will come through – without any real power or certainty? — Alison Armstrong

Get the clarity and freedom this approach to your needs provides in every context!

• Do you assume people already know what you need and are purposefully holding out on you?
• Do you think it's obvious why you need these things?
• Do you strategize to get people to do what you want?
• Do you assume that once you ask, people should handle it from there?

In this Audio Program, we explore:

• The 4 distinct elements of a "Great Ask" – Find out why both male and female instincts will prevent you from saying every one of them!
• The dire consequences of not being direct and asking for what you need.
• Variations on the dialogue to customize your ASK to romantic, family and work situations, including how to make a great ASK out of someone's complaints or mumblings.
• The critical extra ingredient that determines success or failure – how much pressure you use and what kind of pressure it is.
• A simple, practical process for escalating the conversation when other people don't fulfill their commitments.

In addition, hear Alison's answers to common questions asked during the recorded program.

*Alison taught part of this material in 2011 at The Inside Edge. Due to the importance of pursuing one's needs in a counter-instinctual, methodical and trustworthy manner (making it difficult to put into practice), Alison recommends the combination of the audio here and this video on Youtube. It's recommended to use headphones as the first 19 minutes of audio are sketchy.

"Great video!! I think this will help me in my relationship. What she said at the end about what happens when women repeatedly don't get what they need is so true! It has happened like this with me in relationships before. I think men need to know this. It's why when a woman leaves a relationship for good it is too late for the man to now try to save it." — @starr234
