Episode Title: Ego vs. Heart – Learning to Let Go

🎙️ Episode Summary:
In this episode, I reflect on one of the biggest lessons I’m carrying into 2025: knowing the difference between my ego speaking and my heart guiding me. The end of 2024 brought major shifts—walking away from a long-term relationship and stepping down as vice president of my chapter. But even though these were changes I prayed for, I still found myself feeling conflicted. Was I really missing these things, or was my ego just resisting the discomfort of letting go?

Join me as I unpack how ego clings to familiarity, even when it’s unhealthy, and how I learned to trust the process of moving forward.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

  • The emotional toll of stepping away from my leadership role
  • Why my ego made me grieve a relationship I knew wasn’t good for me
  • The difference between missing something and missing the comfort it provided
  • How ego keeps us stuck in situations that no longer serve us
  • Learning to listen to my heart and honor my growth

💡 Key Takeaways:

  • Your ego will try to convince you to hold on to things that aren’t truly serving you.
  • Letting go doesn’t mean losing—it’s making space for something better.
  • Discomfort isn’t a sign you made the wrong choice; it’s a sign you’re evolving.
  • Growth requires trusting the process, even when it feels unfamiliar.
