Micromanagement is not a sign of care, it is a symptom of insecurity and a lack of trust. Checking up on your partner is great but it might go beyond just checking up to micromanaging.Following our deep dive into what autonomy means, this episode takes the conversation a step further into the real world spaces where our independence is most often attacked.When a partner, family member, or system attempts to micromanage your life, they are shifting their internal anxieties onto you.
