307. Why Do I Feel the Need to Control Everything?


Listen Later

Do you find yourself trying to control everything in your life since losing your person?

 

If so, I want you to know that this is completely normal, especially after loss. Our need to control often comes from a deep desire to feel safe when our world has been turned upside down.

 

But here's the truth: trying to control what we can't control is exhausting. It's like trying to hold onto sand - the tighter we grip, the more it slips through our fingers.

 

In this episode, I explore why we feel compelled to control everything after loss, the hidden costs of this behavior, and how to find true power without control.
