The Rising with Janel Gonzalez

The Art of Letting Go: Do You Really Need the Last Word?


Listen Later

In this powerful solo episode, Janel shares a deeply personal story about her family's difficult journey through the public school system — and the emotional process of letting go. 💔


As she prepares to move forward into a new chapter, Janel reflects on a critical question many of us face: Do we need the last word to find closure? The answer, she suggests, is no — not when peace, healing, and growth are the real priorities.


This episode is an honest, heartfelt meditation on:

  • The struggle for justice in broken systems
  • Parenting through adversity
  • Finding peace without closure
  • Moving forward without needing validation
  • Trusting in a higher power and the bigger picture

If you’ve ever wrestled with letting go, felt silenced after fighting for change, or questioned whether to speak your truth one last time — this episode is for you. 💬✨

🕊️ Sometimes, real strength is found in quiet exits.

🎧 Listen, reflect, and rise with us.
