Episode 157: The Burden of Control

from The Wonder Land · host Amanda Jones

In The Wonder Land we have explored the concept of control and how precarious it is, how it seems like a necessary and even virtuous ability to have over oneself and life. But today I invite us to see the hidden cost: the burden. The burden of empty promises and the frustration that results. If you get frustrated because you believe you have to control yourself or others and you fail to do so, listen in for some good news.Become a Patron & Join the Deep DivesGet early access to course discounts, group calls, one-on-one sessions, behind-the-scenes reflections, and exclusive content when you join us on Patreon.👉 https://www.patreon.com/TheWonderLandPodcastLet’s ConnectHave thoughts or questions?
