There’s a quiet kind of courage in letting go. Not the dramatic kind. Not the “burn it all down” kind. The soft kind. The “I love myself too much to carry this anymore” kind.
We hold onto so much, don’t we?
Old timelines. Relationships that once fit but no longer feel right. The need to be understood. The version of ourselves we thought we should be by now. And we wonder why we feel so heavy.
But letting go isn’t weakness. It’s wisdom. It’s self-respect.
It’s making space for the new, the true, the beautifully unexpected.
And no, it doesn’t always come easy. Sometimes we grieve the fantasy more than the reality. Sometimes the release hurts before it heals.
But you deserve to feel light again.
Maybe today, you could set something down. An expectation. A pressure. A version of yourself you’ve outgrown.
Let it go. You were never meant to carry it all.
Little Reflection Prompts:
– What am I still holding onto that no longer serves me?
– Where could I breathe easier, if I chose to release instead of grip?
Wear it close: The LET IT GO charm – for the brave act of surrender.
