Take steps towards freedom from "summary" of Women with Controlling Partners by Carol A Lambert
To break free from a controlling partner, it is essential for women to take deliberate steps towards reclaiming their independence and autonomy. This process involves recognizing the patterns of control and manipulation in the relationship and understanding how they have impacted one's sense of self-worth and agency. By acknowledging the reality of the situation and accepting that change is necessary, women can begin to empower themselves to make different choices that align with their own needs and values. Taking steps towards freedom also requires setting boundaries with the controlling partner and establishing clear expectations for how one should be treated in a relationship. This may involve communicating assertively and standing up for oneself when faced with coercive or abusive behavior. By asserting one's right to be treated with respect and dignity, women can begin to shift the power dynamic in the relationship and create space for their own needs and desires to be heard and honored. Additionally, seeking support from trusted friends, family members, or professionals can be instrumental in the process of breaking free from a controlling partner. By surrounding oneself with individuals who can provide emotional support, guidance, and validation, women can gain the strength and courage needed to take decisive action towards reclaiming their autonomy and independence. Building a support network of people who believe in one's right to live free from control and oppression can help to bolster one's confidence and resilience in the face of adversity.- Taking steps towards freedom is a journey of self-discovery and empowerment that requires courage, determination, and a willingness to embrace change. By committing to the process of liberation from a controlling partner, women can begin to cultivate a sense of empowerment, agency, and self-determination that will enable them to live authentically and freely on their own terms. It is through this journey of self-empowerment and self-liberation that women can begin to reclaim their voice, their power, and their sense of worth in the world.
