The Truth About Controlling People: Why It’s Fear, Not Leadership


Listen Later

If you’ve ever felt like you have to manage every detail, double-check everyone, or control every outcome — this one’s for you. Control doesn’t come from strength, it comes from fear. Fear of failure. Fear of rejection. Fear of being abandoned.

In this episode, I break down:

  • Why controlling people aren’t villains — they’re people running old survival scripts

  • How control kills trust, respect, and real connection

  • The subtle forms of control (micromanaging, guilt trips, overexplaining, fixing people who didn’t ask)

  • What it costs you if you’re the one controlling — and what it costs if you’re being controlled

  • How to break free: naming the fear, trusting yourself, and letting go without losing your power

Whether you’re the one trying to control or the one walking on eggshells, this will show you the truth: peace doesn’t come from grip — it comes from trust.
