In this episode, I reflect on how life often throws unexpected challenges our way. While we can plan and prepare, we can't always control what happens. It can be so freeing if we let go of the need to control everything (which, I'll be real, is a tough one for me) and focus on what we can influence—our attitude and reactions.
I remind us how concentrating on things beyond our control won't ever help a situation. Instead, trusting that things will work out and focusing on the present moment can make a huge difference. Allowing yourself to put your worry and "what if" mindset to rest brings so much more peace.
I continue to hone in on how trusting the process, letting go of excessive worry, and filling our lives with joy and purpose is the way to better days. Sometimes, a single conversation can reignite your inner fire and set you back on the right path. "You'll never reach your destination if you never try."
