Despite the fact that power struggles interfere with harmonious relationships, many couples are plagued by them. People who maneuver for power are often trying to correct a sense of powerlessness that developed in childhood, usually the result of growing up with an over controlling parent. But we will never be able to improve our personal sense of power by controlling others. That’s an inside job that requires a willingness to look at oneself honestly. People in healthy relationships aren’t motivated by competition or the need to control. They understand that empowering their partner actually… 

Empowers themselves.
