Why do people want to control you and how to combat it. || Attentive While Oblivious Podcast #029 || David and Rachel

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!
