S25E19 Let Go First – That’s Where Growth Begins

Letting go is hard. We hold on because we think control will keep us safe. But in truth, it often keeps us stuck. In this week’s episode of Unbox The Podcast, I explore what it really means to let go—and why it’s not weakness, but your greatest strength. 

What if letting go was the real beginning of your transformation? The need to control is often rooted in fear—can block clarity, creativity, and flow. I explain why letting go isn’t weakness or giving up, but a conscious shift in energy that leads to true resilience, presence, and alignment. We explore how letting go builds emotional space, clarity, and personal resilience. And most importantly, how it brings you back to your real self—the one that isn’t caught in loops of fear, pressure, or outdated stories. 🎧 Tune in and start clearing space for who you are now.

Welcome back to Unbox The Podcast.I'm your host, Sahar Huneidi Palmer.
This season, we are exploring the power of your story.

Today, we're diving into a big topic: The art of letting go. (00:15):

Letting go isn’t about giving up or losing.It’s about creating space.
Space for growth, space for new opportunities.
Often, we hold onto thingsbecause we fear the unknown.

Our mind tells us (00:35):
if we let go, we'll lose something vital.
But the truth is,letting go is where real freedom begins.
I see this often with my clients.Real change only happens after release.

Using the BEMA framework helps here: Body, Emotions, Mind, and Action. (00:50):

Your body often stores what your mind won’t let go of.
Notice where you feel tension.That’s a clue.
Emotionally, letting go meansallowing yourself to feel fully.

(01:10):
Not suppressing, not fighting.Just noticing and releasing.
Mentally, it’s about awareness.What stories are you still telling yourself?

Stories like: "I can’t be happy unless..." (01:20):
undefined
Or, "I have to be in control."
Action is the final step.Small, conscious steps toward release.
It can be as simple as clearing a drawer.Or saying goodbye to a belief.
Letting go is a daily practice.It’s gentle, not forceful.

(01:45):
And you are never starting from scratch.You are starting from experience.
Letting go allows clarity to emerge.It’s like clearing a foggy mirror.
You start to see yourself clearly.And you realise you were never lost.
