Nat Chats: Learning How to Let Go of Control

Episode 237: This week, Nat’s back with a solo episode and sharing her whirlwind adventures over the last two weeks. From attending the Forbes 30 Under 30 summit in Ohio (NBD!) to soaking up some much-needed girl time in Dallas with her best friend Giuli and a quick trip to NYC with her sisters, it was a jam-packed trip! While most of her travels were a success, Nat candidly shares the anxiety that came up while she was away and her recent realization about her struggles with control. She reflects on how her determination and independence have led to the incredible life she has built for herself, but also how they can make it tough for her when things don't go as planned, especially when it comes to dating, work, and even friendships. She then explores the concept of letting go and trusting in a bigger plan, drawing from her own experiences of how life's twists and turns often lead to beautiful outcomes. So, if you're currently struggling with something similar and are feeling lost, this episode is a reminder that sometimes surrendering to the unknown can bring remarkable surprises, even if it's not always easy.
