How can you have the power to get what you really need?

Empowerment is having some control over about what happens to us. It includes understanding what’s going on and having the information we need so we can make decisions that are right for us.
Whilst we all need support and advice from time to time, we also need to have a say about what happens to us. People like to have choices whenever they can and we usually don't like being told what’s best for us, even when it really is best for us!
