It's harvest time for many but not for me. Autumn is my "spring cleaning" time.

Letting Go to Live More Fully is one of my mantras and I’m typically singing it as I welcome this time of year.

I'm finding myself tossing old items, giving away piles of clothing and linens, cleaning out toiletries, (how does that drawer get so cluttered?) and generally, cleaning house.

Culling from my freezer and pantry too. Getting off of mailing and email lists. Aligning my bank accounts. And, reviewing/assessing/releasing relationships. This one is the hardest.

This brings me to my topic for today. When we consciously make the decision to walk away from a person who has been a big part of our life, it's a big deal. So is standing up and asking for things to change. And, additionally, being willing, AND READY, to leave if they don't.

So, here is that time of year. Mastermind circles ending. My first Authentic Leadership Academy coming to a close, the realization that the romantic relationship I'm in is no longer where I'm flourishing and happy.

With all of this "letting go" comes a sense of clarity. Freedom. More space to BE. And, the fear of being “alone” is also present.

Many of my friends, clients and colleagues are coupled. If you are one, you may not understand what I'm going through, It's been one hell of a decade since my divorce, and I thought I was done healing.

Maybe we are never done. Just like we are never complete.

Here's to seeing where this takes me and how I'll grow in the process!
