Are you a control freak like me?

I rarely ask for help, and when I do, it can feel incredibly uncomfortable. Even when my kids offer to help with chores, I sometimes find myself cringing.

Why?

In this fanmail episode, I reflect on the struggle of wanting to control everything and the challenge of learning to let others help.

If you’re a recovering control freak too, I’d love to hear from you.
