The Luxury of Letting Go

What if the key to our growth and fulfillment is letting go? Instead of adding more, what if we ease our grip and shake loose restraints?

We’re so used to piling on as a first option. Ask yourself, where are you holding back, restricting, instead of moving freely? Before you do more, release the limits you’ve placed on yourself. Are you staying silent when your ideas make a difference? Are you hiding your passions and skills, thinking they’re not quite ready?

Make space, move lighter, dream bigger.

When I look closely, I find there’s still plenty to release, like nonsense, for starters. I’ve also lovingly let go of relationships that live in lack, people who focus on the negative without a helpful idea or meaningful action in sight.

Moving freely means choosing topics and conversations that inspire you, owning your brilliance, and meeting with people who joyfully hold space for you and encourage forward momentum. It does not mean rigid perfection.

What if we let go of NOT speaking up? We invest time and/or resources in causes and organizations we believe in, and make our voices heard. Say what feels genuine, share your stories, which inspires another, and the ripple effect continues.
