Love Notes from Rhonda

What a Necklace Taught Me About Life Changes


Listen Later

How many times have you thought you’d let something go—only to find it resurfacing again? In this episode, Rhonda shares a deeply personal story about a gift, a necklace, and a moment by the ocean that revealed the deeper truth: letting go isn’t something you do once, but a practice for life. If you’re holding on when you want to be free, this is your invitation to loosen your grip and see what’s possible.

Today, I’m sharing a story that starts with a simple necklace and ends with a powerful transformation. Years ago, a client gave me a necklace engraved with “let go”, a symbol of her own radical shift after working together. For a long time, it was just an object in my room until, standing by the ocean, I finally listened to what my soul needed.

Letting go isn’t a once-and-for-all act. It’s something that comes up when we least expect it, in layers, deeper each time. Whether it’s grief, a relationship, or an old story you didn’t even realize you were carrying, each act of letting go brings more freedom, more breath, more possibility.

If you’ve told yourself “I should be over this by now,” or wondered why old pain resurfaces, you’re not alone. In this episode, you’ll see why the work of releasing is never wasted and why you’ll find more of yourself every time you say yes to letting go.

What You’ll Discover
  • Why letting go isn’t “one and done,” but a life-long, liberating practice
  • How everyday symbols and moments can prompt unexpected release
  • What keeps us attached to old pain, even when we think we’re ready to move on
  • How each act of letting go “unhooks” us and makes space for more of who we are
  • The freedom (and surprise!) that arrives when we surrender—even things we didn’t know we were holding

Key Takeaway

Letting go is not a single moment, it’s a devotion to your own freedom, practiced again and again, each time opening you to something new.

Key Quote

“I want you to remember and embrace that letting go is going to be a lifetime process. Each time, it frees you a little more. Each time, you think it’s the last time. And that’s how it’s supposed to feel.”
