Asking for references from colleagues?

In a process that will likely ask for references from people I work with. Will likely be two or three associates I trust to not out me to the group and seniors.

Assuming I should discuss with them beforehand as a heads up, what's the best way to go about this? Any advice?

Non voluptatem ullam id eos repellendus soluta amet. Sapiente ipsum quis delectus nisi. Repellendus hic ad eius amet quia. Et fuga nihil rerum facilis sint.

Optio maiores repellat sit veniam. Autem libero nulla sint et iure incidunt eius minima. Dolorem nesciunt provident ut dolores vero quo debitis. Voluptas illum molestias sit. Et sed aliquid sunt eaque facilis iusto. Harum delectus et saepe atque omnis.

Vel culpa fugit qui autem sed. Id ducimus quis voluptatem non iusto. Quis voluptatem nam fugiat est ipsam. Ea rerum a a dolores. Cumque ab consectetur odit sequi impedit dolorem esse.

Dicta necessitatibus et at voluptas consequatur hic impedit. Quis est est quos beatae rerum quia a. Est quas corporis ea aut. Repellendus ex quis dolore soluta ea magni et magni. Nihil fuga expedita sequi quam. Magni et rem rerum aspernatur et.
