Let go or stay trapped (Episode 296)

Still stuck in a past that hurts? This episode shows you how to let go… even if you’re not ready, and even if it still stings. We’ll explore why letting go is so hard — grief, identity, and the lure of ‘closure’ — and then we’ll get practical. You’ll learn to name what you’re holding, feel what you’ve avoided, interrupt the ‘if only’ loop, stop trying to ‘win’ the past, set small boundaries, and more. We’ll focus on choosing peace over rumination, putting your energy where you have control, and taking small and doable steps forward. If you’ve been waiting for the perfect apology, or a tidy ending, then this episode of the Let’s Talk About Mental Health podcast offers you another way; one that protects your peace, and helps you carry your story differently.

👉 Ready to let go, even when it’s tough? Then let’s talk!

💡 TL;DR: Still holding on to something? Learn how to finally let go and take your life back. 😃
