The ART of Letting Go . . .

Letting go can mean many different things to many different people. For some, it’s about clearing a closet of outfits from the ‘80s. For others, it’s about sorting through a child’s keepsake box that has taken over more than just a shelf or a corner of the garage. It could even mean emptying the pantry of junk food when trying to adopt a

healthier lifestyle.

But there’s another kind of letting go—one that runs much deeper.

Learning to let go of kids nesting out, of a familiar routine, or of an identity tied to past roles can be one of the hardest yet most freeing experiences of all.

Here’s what’s incredible, though—when I truly embraced the “Art of Letting Go,” I realized I wasn’t actually losing anything. I wasn’t quitting being a friend. I wasn’t quitting being a mom. I wasn’t quitting my career. Instead, I was shifting my focus back to my own goals and desires. I was redirecting my energy toward gratitude, possibilities, and abundance.

Something magical happens when we stop clinging to what was and start embracing what is. I found myself showing up more fully—not just for others, but for myself. I began to appreciate the present moment instead of living in the past. That shift led me back to authenticity, back to truly living.

We all have the ability to shapeshift, adapting to the “Role of the Day.” But where this becomes tricky is when the “Role of the Day” turns into the “Role of the Year” or even the “Role of a Lifetime.” We take on more and more until we forget how it all started. We become so entangled in expectations that we lose sight of our own path.

Can you relate?

Now is the time to embrace the art of letting go—not as a loss, but as a redirection toward clarity. Letting go isn’t about discarding the past; it’s about creating space for your own passion and purpose. When we do this, we don’t just find fulfillment—we inspire those around us to do the same.

Perfection isn’t required. The only thing that matters is living with passion in the present. That is the true art of letting go.
