from Lexicon For Life

Why does control feel so safe... even when it’s exhausting?In this episode, I’m unpacking what it really means to be in control and why so many of us cling to it through overthinking, perfectionism, micromanaging, and needing certainty before we act.This weekend at a beautiful retreat in Gold Coast with Samara Speaking, I realised that my need for control was hiding in plain sight... and I thought I got rid of it!It inspired me to dive into my own need for control, which allowed me to digest and let go, so I've popped my own insights in this episode on:The hidden ways control shows up in your lifeWhy your nervous system craves certaintyThe difference between responsibility and control3 simple steps to start letting go (without losing your power)We can’t control other people, outcomes, or how life unfolds, but we can control how we respond to life!If you’re ready to build more self-trust, feel calmer, and stop carrying the weight of everything… this one’s for you.If you loved this episode, leave a 5-star review so more women like you can find this space 🤍Have feedback or have a listener question?
