In this episode of The Deviled Egg Society, I’m pouring a glass of wine and pulling back the curtain on what’s really been going on in my heart this year: learning to let go of things that no longer serve me.

 It hasn’t been easy—and I’m still very much in the thick of it—but I’m sharing the signs that helped me identify what needed to go, the different areas of life I’m evaluating, and the exact process I’m using to move forward with peace.
 If something in your life is feeling heavy lately, this one’s for you.

🧹 Categories to Evaluate

You’ll hear me walk through these six areas where we can all pause and ask: “Is this still serving me?”

• Physical spaces (clutter, old hobbies, that jacket from 1997 😉)
• Digital clutter (photos, apps, storage, inboxes)
  👉 I talk more about this in the previous episode – don’t miss it!
• Time commitments (roles, routines, responsibilities that were for a past season)
• Relationships (friendships or dynamics that feel draining rather than life-giving)
• Mindsets (perfectionism, scarcity, comparison)
• Habits (late nights, people pleasing, skipping your morning routine… calling myself out!)

🧭 The 5-Step “Bless & Release” Process

Here’s the process I use when it’s time to let something go:

1. Identify it – Name it honestly.
2. Acknowledge it – It did serve you once.
3. Decide – Is it helping you become who you’re called to be now?
4. Release – Let it go with peace (pray about it, journal, etc.).
5. Replace – Make room for what will serve you in this new season.

💬 Journal Prompt

Here’s your reflection for the week:

💡And yes—"terrifying" is a valid first answer.

Write it down. Then come back to it the next day and see what new feelings come up. Is there any excitement on the other side of that fear?

Thank you so much for being here, for showing up, and for being brave enough to reevaluate what’s in your life right now.
 As I said at the end... I’m somewhere between screaming and laughing on this roller coaster ride—and I’m so glad we’re on it together. 💛
