E110: You’re Not in Charge—and That’s a Good Thing
from The Happiest Lives Podcast · host Jill M. Lillard, MA LPC
This begins the new series: Loosening Your Grip.What if the very thing you’re trying to control is what’s actually keeping you stuck? In this episode, I’m sharing a really personal story. Years of chronic pain, self-reliance, and striving brought me face-to-face with a hard truth: I’m not in charge. And that’s a good thing. We’ll talk about why control feels so tempting, what happens when we hit our limit, and how real power begins when we stop white-knuckling life and start clinging to God. This is about loosening your grip, not giving up. You’ll walk away with a new perspective on what it means to trust and why the limp you’re walking with might just be the very evidence that God is blessing you.If you want to take this work and apply it, visit myhappyvault.com.
