The Divorced Woman’s Guide to Letting go
Divorce can be an empowering experience women go through to find their true voice and identity to design a life they love instead of feeling stuck with the one they have.
Wendy Sterling helps women heal from divorce; she empowers them to reclaim ownership of their identity, their voice and their life. On her podcast, “The Divorced Woman’s Guide” with Wendy Sterling, we talked at length about my favourite topics…
Why we struggle to let go
As human beings, every choice we make comes down to safety and avoiding perceived danger. Even when a relationship is bad for us, we get used to it and it gives us safety. Leaving that situation and letting go feels like a loss of safety, and that’s what makes letting go so difficult. It’s natural to have those moments of fear and doubt, even when letting go is the right thing.
How to own the power we have when we let go
The fear of letting go stems from a fear of the unknown. When we leave something familiar that we’ve known a long time, it’s like jumping off a cliff thinking we don’t have a safety net. Instead of waiting for external safety, we have to trust that we’re strong enough to be our own safety net and catch ourselves.
The process of overcoming limiting beliefs
Limiting beliefs are a sign that we fully haven’t let go of something in our past. Before we can dispel them, we have to become aware of them. Once we know them, we can revise and eliminate them so that our beliefs start working for us, not against us. We can turn limiting beliefs into epiphanies by becoming woke to ourselves.
