How to Stop Managing Your Partner and Start Feeling Desired Again
Manage episode 520087817 series 3684455
If you're exhausted from carrying the relationship, secretly resentful that your partner never steps up, or constantly managing, fixing, and planning everything — this episode is your mirror.
We uncover the unconscious control patterns that destroy polarity and intimacy — and the nervous system fears driving them. You'll learn:
Why your need for control is actually a need for safety.
How to rebuild trust and polarity without suppressing your power.
What men actually crave (and it's not perfection or performance).
The difference between nurturing and mothering.
How to stop doing it all and start being again.
This is for every woman who's done being the strong one, the manager, the "mother" — and is ready to feel desired, safe, and deeply connected again.
