How Micromanaging Your Relationship Is Pushing Your Partner Away
from The Angry Therapist Podcast · host The Angry Therapist
Today, John explores how love often uncovers unresolved wounds, revealing the deeper work still to be done. He emphasizes the value of peace in a relationship over the illusion of control, and champions vulnerability and trust as the cornerstones of a lasting connection. I'm running a 7-Day "Done with the Bullsh*t" Detox — this isn't the kind with green juice and caffeine withdrawals. It's a soul-level cleanse. Here’s what you’ll detox each day: Day 1: Cancel old contracts — the silent agreements you never meant to make. Day 2: Break up with people-pleasing and reclaim your no. Day 3: Unfollow the fantasy and stop chasing someone else’s timeline. Day 4: Mute your inner critic and replace it with compassion. Day 5: Cut out comparison and come back to your own path. Day 6: Starve the reflex to fix everything — choose stillness instead. Day 7: Fast from the noise and finally hear yourself again. This isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about coming home to who you’ve always been. This challenge is only $7 and starts June 16th. SIGN UP HERE. Order John's new book, Break Up. On Purpose, HERE Jump into John’s new Single.
