The Michelle Chalfant Show — Life from the Adult Chair

Today, I am diving deep into the concept of control and how to release its grip on our lives and others. I introduce six control-busting truths designed to help mitigate the fear-driven need to control everything.  Drawing from personal experiences as a recovering control freak, I discuss the impact of control on mental health and daily life, the connection to codependency, and the extreme exhaustion that comes from trying to maintain control. We explore the importance of accepting things as they are, trusting the process, and challenging our controlling nature to create a more peaceful existence.  Tune in to learn practical steps to transform your inner perfectionist and live in a more relaxed and authentic state. In this episode, I cover: * Understanding the roots and impact of control * Exploring the link between control and codependency * Key truths to help break the need for control * Shifting inward, challenging thoughts, and practicing acceptance * Trusting the process and taking small steps toward freedom Resources from this Episode: The Adult Chair [https://courses.theadultchair.com/the-adult-chair-book] book is NOW AVAILABLE!
