How good are you at letting go? Most of us are terrible at it.

Letting go is hard to do.

So, how do we put down all of those rocks we keep stuffing into our backpacks?

In this episode, I peel back the layers on what it really means to shed the emotional burdens we carry. In Tuesday's conversation with Holly Jean Jackson, she shared her expertise on why letting go of things we don't need to be responsible for is akin to setting down a heavy load we've been shouldering for far too long. 

I take you through a revealing exercise, showing you how to physically cast away tension and embrace the liberating sensation that follows. You'll learn why this act of release is essential, not just for personal wellbeing but for propelling yourself forward in our careers and life missions.

Feeling judged, by ourselves or others, is a familiar tether for most of us. What if we could let it go? I recount an eye-opening personal epiphany and invite you to join me on the path from self-criticism to self-love—an essential journey for fostering leadership and empathy. 

By tuning into our gentler, empathetic voice, we empower ourselves to become not just better leaders, but also more understanding human beings. 

We dissect the notion of first voice and second voice, uncovering how being mindful of which one we listen to can significantly enrich our personal lives and professional interactions. This isn't just an intellectual exercise; it's a practical guide to nurturing a more fulfilled existence.

We end this Thursday Thread episode with a breathwork session to support you in releasing judgment, and any stress, tension or anxiety that came with it – through the window of loving curiosity.
