This podcast deals with why people want to control you and how not to let them. Rachel and I go through quite a few reasons why people want control of you and us. Sometimes just a simple no can be a remedy in most circumstances. Discussions of:

  • Mic drop
  • Guilt is a subfactor of control
  • Boundaries
  • I don’t like the lunch lady in the line
  • I am the boss of myself
  • Generational
  • Narcissistic
  • No with no explanation
  • You care about yourself more than others feelings
  • Rachel is a people pleaser
  • Touch love
  • Position holder
  • You can be a healer and not be a sucka
  • Electric shock therapy


We feel that the only one that should control you is you. Make it a point to set simple boundaries at first and go from there. Good luck with your journey!
