Today, I'm excited to delve into a topic that was inspired by one of my listeners: letting go of the need to control (in our lives and in our leadership).

Imagine standing in the middle of a turbulent sea, surrounded by crashing waves and swirling currents. That feeling of vulnerability, of being at the mercy of forces beyond your control—that's the essence of the human experience. It's like navigating through life's storms, desperately searching for an anchor to hold onto.

But here's the paradox: the more we grasp for control, the more it slips through our fingers like sand. It's like trying to capture the wind—we may temporarily contain it, but ultimately, it's bound to slip away. Control becomes a mirage, always just out of reach, leaving us trapped in a cycle of anxiety, frustration, and isolation.

But where does that need to control come from, and how do we break free and embrace the sweet surrender of trust? Today I share some practical tips to guide you on your journey.

Key Highlights:

• Understanding the need to control
• The roots of control
• Lack of trust
• Practical tips for letting go

I hope this episode blesses you!

Xoxo,

Tanya
