GYLTG 356: Unpacking Your Baggage

<p class="">Are you moving through something big right now? You are not alone! However, we often think we are when we move through significant moments. In this space, we struggle to let go of what is no longer serving us because fear and guilt trump our needs and our perceived worthiness to have a grounded, healthy, and happy life.</p> <p class="">And thanks to fear, many believe that letting go is impossible, traumatic, or downright impossible. The truth is, there is a shadow side to healing. Yet, there are ways to soften the blow by doing deep preliminary work ahead of our healing.  </p> <p class="">This week we are doing just that through a one-on-one deep dive into the process of letting go. We’re entering a space where we consciously create a path for our deepest desires, the self-awareness process, and learning how to let go of people and relationships, heavy emotions and trauma, attachment, and the obstacles that stand in our way.</p> <p class="">So, let’s shift our perspectives and our ability to heal, move forward, and own our most extraordinary, most empowered life.</p> <p class="">Key Takeaways:</p> <p class="">00:00 Introduction</p> <p class="">01:32 A big question: Are you moving through something right now?</p> <p class="">02:41 So many women are seeking change by letting go of what is no longer serving them right now!</p> <p class="">04:39 Answering the top questions: How do we move on?  </p> <p class="">05:00 Three hard truths of letting go</p> <p class="">         #1: Holding onto anything that doesn’t serve you is a conscious, willing choice</p> <p class="">         #2: There’s a shadow side to healing</p> <p class="">         #3: You have the ability to move through or let go of anything once you stop getting in your own way</p> <p class="">08:03 Look at the four areas of letting go we are most impacted in:</p> <p class="">          Letting go of a person or relationship</p> <p class="">          Letting go of an attachment</p> <p class="">          Letting go of trauma or difficult emotions</p> <p class="">          Letting go of the past</p> <p class="">08:36 One “little” thing you must have in place before you can let go – self-trust</p> <p class="">09:51 Self-trust goes beyond knowing you can do something.
