Trying to control what was never yours to control is exhausting.
In this episode of He Sees You, Dr. Lana Lyman continues the conversation on boundaries with the Law of Power and the Law of Respect. She explores the difference between helplessness and powerlessness, why surrender is not weakness, and how much anxiety can come from trying to change another person’s choices, honesty, recovery, or behavior.
Dr. Lana also explains why healthy love respects another person’s freedom to choose, even when those choices are painful. You may not be able to control someone else, but you still have power over your own responses, boundaries, honesty, growth, and obedience.
What have you been trying to control that was never actually yours to control?
