Episode notes

The best way to appreciate a culture abroad is by immersing yourself in it. If you are lucky enough to have an upcoming summer trip abroad, you may have a packed itinerary planned. I recommend you start your adventure now with Babel, the language learning app that can prepare you for real life conversation in as little as three weeks. Believe me, you'll be surprised at what a few weeks some Babel can do. Right now, get up to 55% off your subscription when you go to babble.com slash hard things and pick "Babel Language"

In this unplanned conversation, Amanda speaks up for everyone who’s been labeled a “Control Freak” – anyone who feels like they have to hold up the entire sky for their families or businesses – when what they really want is to feel supported and safe. Amanda shares vulnerably about: how she became an overfunctioner, the blessings and curses of being one, and the practical strategies she’s using to let go – and what her partner is doing to make her feel like she can finally try to relax.
