In this episode, I’m opening up the window to my one of the hardest things I ever had to do in life, and I bet some of you listening also had or have a tough time with: letting go. I want to start with a line from the poet Rumi. He wrote, “Let yourself be silently drawn by the strange pull of what you really love. It will not lead you astray.” The question I have for you is, how do we let ourselves be pulled forward when we’re weighed down by pain, loss, or trauma? When people advise to let “it” go it sounds simple, but it’s not. It could be a loss of a job, a relationship that ended, or a dream that feels out of reach, letting go can feel like giving up. Like you’re losing a part of yourself. But what if letting go isn’t about losing? What if it’s about making space? — Want to connect? https://www.tamikacody.com/contact Want to take part in the Story of Survival series? Email your entry to [email protected].
