❓What if your next level requires you to let go of the life that no longer fits—even if it once made perfect sense?
In this deeply personal and freeing episode of Ascend and Ignite, Shannon Howard shares the power, permission, and peace that comes when you finally allow yourself to change your mind—yes, even now.
If you've ever felt trapped by your past decisions, stuck in a path that used to feel right, or afraid of what others will think if you pivot—this episode is your permission slip to evolve.
Because growth is not a betrayal. It's the bravest thing you can do.
💬 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
Why it’s normal to outgrow the plans you once felt sure about
How staying in misalignment leads to fatigue, resentment, and burnout
Why changing your mind isn’t flaky—it’s wise
How to spot the difference between self-discipline and self-abandonment
A powerful journaling exercise to help you get honest about your next step
🌟 This episode is for you if you’ve ever said:
✔️ “I worked too hard to walk away now.”
✔️ “What if I disappoint people?”
✔️ “I should be grateful, right?”
✔️ “It’s too late to start over.”
You’re allowed to grow.
You’re allowed to outgrow what once made sense.
