Shades of Strong® | Strength Without Struggle for Black Women

Soulful Sunday | This Week Feels Like Letting Go


Listen Later

Letting go isn’t always easy—especially when you’ve poured so much of yourself into something. But gripping tightly to an outcome that’s already shifting away will only leave you stuck, frustrated, and drained.
This week, we’re releasing the need to control every outcome. No more forcing. No more fighting for what’s already walking away. Instead, we’re making peace with the unfolding and trusting that what’s meant for us will always find us.
What You’ll Get in This Episode:
A few reasons letting go of outcomes feels so hard
Why trying to force what’s already shifting only leads to more struggle
A shift in perspective that will help you breathe a little easier this week
Takeaway:
There is peace in letting go. Holding on too tightly—whether to plans, people, or expectations—can feel like security, but often, it just keeps us stuck. This episode is an invitation to loosen the grip, trust the unfolding, and find peace in what’s already shifting. Because sometimes, the freedom we’re searching for isn’t in getting what we want—it’s in releasing what was never ours to hold.
Affirmation for the Week:
"This week, I release the need to control every outcome. I trust that what’s meant for me will find me. I find peace in the unfolding."
Take a deep breath and press play.
