About this listen

 Sometimes control feels like safety.
We try to manage every detail—of our relationships, our friendships, our jobs, even our kids—thinking it will keep us from getting hurt or make everything “turn out right.”
But the truth? That constant need to control can leave you drained, disconnected, and living in survival mode. In this episode of Out Loud and In Progress, I’m opening up about:
  • Why control is often just fear dressed up as “help”
  • How over-controlling shows up beyond love—at work, in friendships, and in parenting
  • My own journey of letting go of the “I can do it better” mindset
  • How stepping back can actually build trust, connection, and growth
  • Practical ways to loosen your grip without losing yourself
If you’ve been carrying the weight of trying to hold everything together, this conversation is your reminder: you can say less, trust more, and protect your peace without shutting down your heart. 🎧 Press play and let’s talk about the power of letting go.
