Reduce the Resentment: Asking for Help with W-Words. In this video lesson, we talk about communication and how certain words are processed in certain ways. You learn to ask for help in a new way, by using what I like to refer to as W-Words, which empower your partner while helping you get your needs met. Once you learn to ask for assistance in a way that makes your partner want to help, your resentment starts to slip away and leaves room for more love and more satisfaction.
