The Control Delusion - A Guide to Beat the Patriarchy One Decision at a Time, by Catherine Skinner
You've been taught that to be safe, you must stay small. That to get ahead, you must work harder and endure more. I've learned the harsh truth: this is a delusion. After 15 years supporting, coaching, and campaigning to end violence against women and girls, I know that no matter how hard we work, the patriarchy was never designed for us to win. This is the control delusion. The path to beating it isn't to work harder; it’s to put yourself first. In this groundbreaking guide, you’ll learn how to stop burning out and use your authenticity as your greatest asset. Drawing on years of experience, I’ll show you how to identify the hidden blocks and attacks designed to push you off track. You'll gain the knowledge and skills to live on your own terms, and get clear on your relationships, wealth, health, and purpose. This is where activism, self-care, and authentic living come together. This is your guide to a life without regret, filled with courage, purpose, and peace.
