What if the thing you're clinging to is the very thing holding you back?

In this week’s episode, Stephanie and Maren dive deep into the attachments we hold—money, identity, expectations—and the hidden cost of not letting go. Maren shares her powerful personal story of losing $250,000 and the radical transformation that followed when she chose to see it not as a failure, but as a gift.

Together, they explore:

• The emotional weight of attachment
• The courage it takes to surrender
• How to recognize what’s no longer serving you
• And what freedom really feels like on the other side of letting go
  
  

This episode is a heart-forward companion to Ep 180: The Secret to More Energy—so make sure to add it to your playlist.

If you’re holding on tight to something (or someone), this conversation might just be the invitation you didn’t know you needed.
