You Can’t Control Your Partner, But You’re Not Powerless
Episode 350
Tuesday, 13 January, 2026
This episode speaks directly to one of the most exhausting parts of being in a relationship: realizing you can’t control your partner and wondering what that means for you.For a lot of people, that realization feels defeating. Like your hands are tied. Like you’re stuck waiting or reacting or hoping things improve.This week I talk about why not being able to control your partner does not mean you are powerless. In fact, your real influence in a relationship has very little to do with managing or controlling other people and how you manage yourself, which is the real flex. I also mention:• the regret of managing others instead of living authentically• what you can control versus what you can only influence• common control tactics that backfire in relationships• regulation over reactivity to build safety and trust• the three-step power move: pause, name, choose• my real-life gym moment from this morning• aligning responses with values and intentionsGo to https://monicatanner.com/call and let's see if you're a good fit for one of my remaining time slots.Send us a text
