Have you ever felt responsible for other people’s happiness, emotions, or decisions? Do you constantly try to fix problems, manage reactions, or control situations that aren’t really yours to carry? This Lent, I made a powerful decision to give up something I’ve struggled with for years: the need to fix everything and everyone.

In this episode, I’m sharing what this journey has taught me about letting go, releasing control, and trusting that I am not responsible for managing the emotions of others. If you’ve ever felt drained by carrying responsibilities that aren’t yours, this conversation is for you.

👉 In this episode, I’ll cover:

✔️ How to recognize when you’re trying to fix things that aren’t your responsibility

✔️ Why letting go doesn’t mean not caring—it means trusting others to grow

✔️ Simple mindset shifts to release control and find peace in your daily life

💡 "You are not required to set yourself on fire to keep others warm." – Unknown
