EP 322: Let Go of Your Need for Control with Beck

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This episode is about realizing control is just a protective behavior. Today’s caller, Beck, wants to feel safe and worthy of love without feeling the need to calculate and devise a plan to control the outcome of a situation. We work through ways she can express her emotions and voice her truth to meet her needs.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">[For show notes, go here:</span> <a href="http://christinehassler.com/episode322"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Christinehassler.com/episode322</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">]</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We all have, at some level, an addiction to control. We have different relationships with it and it is hard for us to completely be in uncertainty, non-attachment, and surrender. The more personal development work we do, the more we are able to step into those things but it is naturally human to have those kinds of controlling pieces come up.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Often, what we consider as controlling is a part of us that doesn’t feel safe. And, that part is trying to protect us. I also believe semantics and words are very important. No one wants to be called controlling.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It is hard to get leverage and to do the work we need to do on ourselves when we use a word that has a lot of judgment on top of it. Instead of thinking of your behaviors as controlling, think of them as protective behaviors. It feels better and makes it easier to understand, accept, and shift them.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Are you a woman looking to call in a man?
