Are You Afraid Of Letting Go? The Freedo...

ALLISON WETIG AND CEARA KIRKPATRICK
About this episode

Ep 246: In this episode, Allison and Ceara reflect on the changing season, as fall invites in the energy of release. We encourage listeners to embrace the natural ebb and flow of life, as the only thing forever constant, is change. 

We discuss the importance of releasing old habits, emotions, identities, lifestyle choices and relationships that are no longer in alignment. We include personal examples, practical tips for letting go, and reflections on how to navigate the emotional challenges that come with change. 

In this catch up segment, Ceara shares about a visit to her grandparents on the East coast. The highlight was going to a murder mystery play and spending quality time with them. Allison is making progress on her birth plan by watching documentaries, listening to birth story podcast episodes and heavily researching how to prepare. 


TAKEAWAYS:

  • Letting go is essential for personal growth and making space for new opportunities.
  • The process of letting go can be emotional and challenging.
  • Identifying what to let go of can help alleviate feelings of jealousy, resentment, and negativity.
  • Fear of the unknown often holds us back from letting go
  • Mindfulness practices, such as journaling and breath work, can facilitate emotional release.
  • The end of one chapter is not the end of the story; it can lead to new beginnings.
  • Letting go can improve our relationships with ourselves and others.
  • Creating an action plan can help ease the transition of letting go.
