The paradox of human existence reveals itself most clearly in our relationship with change. Despite living on a planet where transformation is constant, where we ourselves evolve from infancy through adulthood and beyond, we resist letting go with surprising tenacity. This resistance often stems not from attachment to what we're holding, but fear of the unknown that follows release.

Drawing from her books and personal experiences, Dr. Bethann explores the nuanced art of letting go through contemplative questions that help us understand our own resistance. "What am I gaining by holding on? Who would I be without this? What am I afraid will happen if I let this go?" These gentle inquiries create space for self-discovery without judgment, allowing us to recognize patterns that keep us clinging to what no longer serves us.

Key talking points include:

• We are hardwired for change yet naturally resist it out of fear of the unknown
• Letting go happens in degrees - sometimes subtly, sometimes dramatically
• Questions like "What am I gaining by holding on?" can help us understand our resistance
• Grief represents a unique form of letting go that follows its own timeline
• When something dies within us through release, something new is always reborn
• Trust the process of "unbecoming to become" as we shed old identities
• Find joy in the unknown by remembering that love is the thread guiding us through change

Ready to explore what might be waiting on the other side of release? This episode invites you to trust the process of "unbecoming to become" as you navigate your own journey of letting go. Share your experiences with release and transformation—what have you let go of that created space for something beautiful to enter your life?
