If it doesn't serve you, it's time to let it go.
It’s a simple, yet powerful reminder for all of us to recognize what’s draining our energy, preventing growth and hindering our happiness - whether it’s a relationship, habit, belief or physical possession.
When was the last time you checked in with yourself to identifying which areas of your life are not serving your well-being?

You’ve probably heard the old saying - there’s 2 sides to every story - yours and mine. But I’d venture to go even further and say there’s a 3rd side that lies somewhere in the middle where both sides collide. It’s called the truth.
Join me in this episode as we begin to analyze this month's new theme "Letting Go and Moving On" with a new song - His Story co-written with my friend and producer, Charles Mansour.

Why You Should Listen...
Maybe you can relate to this. For as long as I can remember, I have been one of those girls who wanted to be liked, accepted; wanted to please everyone (family, friends, kids, etc) – but never felt satisfied. Why could someone who was such a people pleaser want to please everyone but herself? The answer was never really clear to me until I hit rock bottom at the old age of 40. I was spending so much time trying to make everything perfect for everyone else that I never thought I was important enough to stop and ask myself ‘what is it that you want? What makes YOU happy?’
I would listen to friend after friend tell me they were unhappy with their marriage, their jobs, the day-to-day grind that in my head I was saying ‘YES! I totally relate!’ but I was too ashamed and embarrassed to admit it. I didn’t want anyone to know I was secretly feeling the same pain/misery/unhappiness they were feeling. Why did I feel like I had to keep it together all the time? How could someone who seemingly had the “perfect” life be so unhappy?
I started turning my journaling about feelings into songs. And now, I want to share those with you in hopes it helps others who feel the same way as I did know they’re not alone.
Join me as we take a deep dive into these murky waters. It's not always going to be comfortable, but sometimes being uncomfortable is the best way to grow.
