Today Gia and Karen talk about control: why we want it, why we don’t have it, and how to live in a world we can’t control. They’ll share their own stories of learning how to let go of controlling behaviors and see the “big picture”: we can’t control the external events of life but we can control our perspective on life. The conversation includes these thoughts:
- How our society fosters the illusion of having control over life
- Why goal-setting may not be the best practice
- How to maximize creativity by letting go of control (and have a lot more fun in life!)
- Beware of the ego’s tendency to attach to future outcomes
- What “surrender” really means
- How resistance causes problems
- Why you should avoid drama
- What gets misinterpreted about the Law of Attraction
- Using disappointment to foster growth
- Becoming a tool and vessel for the Divine

It's Just Life! 
Oh, I really liked Episode 12 on control. Being present is so important. I so agree that being here for myself is really what keeps us grounded. Yes, to allowing change to happen. Yes, to allowing rather than resisting. Great dialogue today Gia and Karen.
