    How Releasing Control Protects Your Peace

    What if peace has less to do with getting your way and more to do with letting go? We dig into the quiet power of surrender—not as defeat, but as self-respect—and explore why trying to control partners, friends, coworkers, and even strangers so often backfires. Instead of chasing compliance, we look at what happens when you anchor to acceptance, set clear boundaries, and stop taking other people’s choices as a verdict on your worth. I share a personal story about refusing a sudden, high-stakes financial ask and the friendship that didn’t survive the no. It’s a raw reminder that saying no may cost approval, but saying yes to what you can’t carry costs yourself. We unpack practical ways to release control in everyday moments: letting someone load the dishwasher differently without turning it into a referendum, asking for help without demanding it, and respecting a no without pushing. Along the way, we talk about how past experiences shape behaviour, why judgment fades when curiosity grows, and how focusing on outcomes over micromanaging methods eases tension at home and at work. This conversation is for anyone tired of resentment, guilt, and emotional whiplash. You’ll learn how to notice the impulse to control, pause before reacting, and choose actions aligned with your values. If a boss denies time off or a driver cuts you off, you can still protect your mood and your energy. That’s the heart of surrender: you stop gripping what was never yours to hold and invest in what you can shape—your tone, your boundaries, your next step. If this resonates, tap follow, share it with someone who needs a lighter load today, and leave a quick review to help more listeners find the show.

    What If Letting Go Is The Start Of Love?

    Loss can crack us open, but it doesn’t have to leave us broken. Teresa sits down with Dan Malcolm for a deeply human conversation about moving through grief, releasing control, and learning to love yourself from the inside out. Dan shares how the back-to-back losses of his father and mother, paired with a painful divorce, led to years of anger and exhaustion—until a hard goodbye from a close friend pushed him to finally look inward. That moment became the start of a different life: honest self-inquiry, daily practices that calm the nervous system, and a commitment to choose love over fear. We unpack what reframing grief really looks like: honouring the depth of love behind the pain, letting go of guilt, and using memories as fuel for growth rather than anchors to the past. Dan speaks about intuitive moments—like a dream from his mom before a career breakthrough—that helped him trust he was supported, even when the path wasn’t clear. He also gets practical with tools that anyone can use: a hand over the heart paired with “I am safe,” simple gratitude rituals, and a mindset of “everything works out for me” to reset in stressful moments. The conversation dives into leadership and relationships too. Dan explains how his need to control fed his anger, and how choosing to “let them” changed the way he communicates, listens, and guides a large team. We explore letting go of clutter—old clothes, old stories, old identities—to make room for what matters now. The throughline is presence: learn from the past, plan for the future, but live where your feet are. If you’re navigating grief, burnout, or a season of change, this story offers grounded hope, gentle practices, and a reminder that you are not alone. If this conversation resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs it, and leave a review to help others find these tools. Your story might be the nudge someone else needs today.
