Episode 82 - Are You Leading or Just Controlling? How Insecurity Shows Up in Relationships, Work & Family
In this episode of Triple Shot Mindset, Ardavan, Kevin, and Amanda explore the surprisingly thin line between leadership and control. When does taking charge become a need to have everything done your way? Can perfectionism, insecurity, lack of trust, or even genuine care turn us into control freaks without realizing it? The conversation gets personal as the trio talks about delegation, giving and receiving advice, trusting other people to do things differently, and recognizing when "I'm just trying to help" is actually a disguised attempt to control someone else. They also dive into how these dynamics show up in work, family, friendships, and romantic relationships, why some people want agreement more than honest advice, and what separates a true leader from someone who simply needs to be right. Sometimes leadership means stepping up. Sometimes it means listening. And sometimes the strongest thing you can do is step back and let go of the outcome.
