Introduction

This episode is very personal for me, it is a situation I have found myself in many times in my life but just learned how to fully process. The past 5 years have been very consequential to me for so many reasons. One huge lesson came when I lost some very dear and close relationships. There were no conflicts, arguments or disagreements, just a slow withdrawal that ended abruptly. Now, we all know that relationships have their seasons and each one isn’t meant to go on forever. What I was not prepared for was what I now know was grief that set in. It caused me to question myself, my actions and my decisions about who I let in my life. I felt like a bad judge of character and worse a bad person. All of this affected every area of my life because it exploited the lack of trust I already had in myself to make sound decisions.

Eventually, I decided that this needed to be brought up in therapy and just like most things I realized that like most things, I was in charge of how I processed these situations. I was able to find ways to process these losses in a healthy way because when I dug down to the root causes I found a lot of healing in that work. I also found understanding of myself and others as well as a level of peace that I needed to let go of these relationships with a soft heart. That part was important to me because I was already on a quest for more peace and calm in my life. I hope this episode brings you some comfort and support in knowing that letting go comes as a price and that you can also come out on the other side with joy. The work is so worth it as it really provides a deep healing and understanding that will only enhance your life. For the show notes visit www.lwapllc.com/podcast.
