Surrender. Just hearing the word can make us uneasy. It often gets mistaken for weakness, but what if surrender is actually a superpower? In this episode of The Air is Free, Sue and Frida dive into what it truly means to surrender—not as giving up, but as letting go of resistance and embracing what is instead of forcing what should be.
We unpack why surrendering can feel so uncomfortable, how fear and vulnerability keep us clinging to control, and the unexpected wisdom of horses when it comes to trusting the process. Plus, Frida shares a simple but powerful anchoring technique that helps calm the body and bring you back to center when things feel overwhelming.
What you’ll take away from this episode:
✅ The difference between surrendering and giving up
✅ Why control and expectations are keeping you stuck
✅ A grounding exercise to find calm when anxiety hits
✅ How horses can teach us the power of presence and trust
Let go, lean in, and press play.
