186. Surrendering vs. Forcing (How to Know When It’s Time to Let Go & Stop Trying So Hard)


Listen Later

In this episode, I discuss the importance of surrendering versus forcing, especially for highly sensitive people. I explore how embracing the natural ebbs and flows of our energy, rather than constantly pushing ourselves, is key to thriving and finding peace. I share my personal experience as a second time mom and offer practical insights on how to slow down, release control, and trust that the right answers will come when we allow space for them.

In this episode, you'll learn:

  • How can I stop feeling guilty when I don't feel productive or inspired?
  • What can I do when I'm frustrated because things aren’t going as planned?
  • How can I manage my need for constant achievement and perfectionism?
  • What does it mean to "surrender" and how does it help me heal?
  • How can I navigate times of uncertainty or feeling "stuck" in life?
  • What are the benefits of slowing down and trusting the process instead of forcing results?
