Letting Go: The Practice That Changed Everything

Letting go is one of the most powerful practices I’ve come to embrace, and it’s a process that’s as much about mindset as it is about action. It’s a conscious decision to release what no longer serves you — whether that’s outdated beliefs, unhealthy habits, or relationships that hold you back.

When you make space by letting go, you create room for clarity, growth, and a deeper alignment with your true desires.

This journey isn’t about striving for perfection or eliminating everything from your life — it’s about being intentional with what you choose to hold onto. The more you release what no longer serves you, the more you invite in what truly matters, what feels aligned with who you are at your core.

Letting go has been one of the most transformative practices of my life, and it’s something I feel deeply called to share with others, in the hope that it helps you, too.

It all started with a pause.

For me, it began with learning to let go — which all stemmed from the awareness I acknowledged when I finally paused long enough to listen.

About four years ago, the realisation hit me: I had moved halfway across the world. I’d built a humble, wholesome life with my young family in Australia, but I felt uprooted — lost, disconnected, unsure of who I was. I was raising my family in Australia, but a huge part of me still longed for and belonged in England.

After an entire year of deep reflection — truly asking myself what I missed, and why — I began to understand what I wanted to carry forward and merge into my new life in Australia. And, just as importantly, what I needed to let go of.

(And no — it goes far deeper than sipping tea in the English countryside.)

I realised the person I had been was no longer who I was becoming. It was time to shed those layers and embrace the next chapter of my journey.

It was painful. But it was necessary.

I needed to let go of my old identity — the beliefs, roles, and labels I had internalised. That didn’t mean abandoning the good; it meant acknowledging the parts of myself that had served their season, but no longer aligned.

This process became symbolic of discovering who I truly was at my core — and where I needed to plant myself moving forward.

As a wife, mother, sister, daughter, friend, granddaughter, daughter-in-law, business owner, and coach… every role shaped me. And every role helped me redefine what home, belonging, and purpose really mean.

This wasn’t about abandoning the past.
It was about honouring it — and choosing what to carry forward.

I embarked on a journey of merging my roots. I gave myself full permission to embrace the reality that I carry two homes in my heart — without expectation, guilt, or conditioning.

That same principle showed up again when I dove into entrepreneurship. Building a business forced me to confront my perfectionism, limiting beliefs, fear of judgment, and unhealthy coping patterns. Letting go wasn’t easy — but it was essential. It cleared the way for clarity, growth, and alignment.

My life, home, and business are now grounded in the same core values — and so many of you know, that personal journey is exactly what led me here. It became the foundation of a business that helps others come home to themselves, too.

Letting go wasn’t just liberating — it was deeply empowering.

And as my personal growth evolved, so did my health journey.

For years, I struggled with chronic inflammation, anxiety, gut issues, and back pain. I was clinging to old beliefs about my body that kept me stuck. I had to let go of the story that I was "just built this way" — and get curious about the deeper root.

That journey led me into integrative medicine, neurological emotional technique (NET), and learning the science behind how our emotional and physical health are intricately connected.

I came to see that unresolved emotional pain had taken up space in my body — manifesting in tension, inflammation, and imbalance. I began releasing what I’d been holding, and healing followed.

Letting go of emotional baggage was just as essential as the physical healing itself.

I stopped clinging to the belief that I couldn’t change.
And instead, I made space for a new story — one grounded in clarity, possibility, and peace.

Understanding my genetic blueprint was a turning point. It gave me the confidence to stop following generic advice and instead honour the truth of how I was designed to function and thrive. It confirmed my core belief: there’s a reason for everything.

Your body isn’t a quick fix. Neither is your mind.
Deep change requires un-conditioning from the inside out.
It requires consistency. Belief. Grace. Courage.

So here’s what I’ve learned:

Letting go isn’t about stripping away who you are — it’s about choosing what gets to stay.

It’s not a one-time event. It’s a lifelong process.
You’ll return to it again and again.
And each time, you’ll make more space for what’s aligned, authentic, and true.

As you reflect on your own season right now, ask yourself:

✨ What might I need to let go of — even gently — to grow?

It may not be easy. But I promise you: it’s always worth it.

Letting go is how we come home to ourselves — and it goes far deeper than the walls around us.
