Letting Go

Letting go is a personal process, and what works for one person may not work for another. It’s about finding what resonates with you and implementing it with self-compassion and patience.

There’s always new things we have to let go of but today I wanted to talk about letting go of old mindsets.


Letting go of old mindsets can feel like releasing the anchors that have kept us strung up to a familiar, yet stagnant, shore. It’s about learning to set sail into uncharted waters, and embrace the possibility of new perspectives and growth. While scary at first, the journey can be liberating and rewarding.

Develop new anchors: As you release the old, make space for the new and empowering mindsets. What beliefs would better serve you on your journey? Create and write down positive affirmations, visualize your desired outcomes, and surround yourself with inspiring individuals and resources.

Here are some empowering mindsets that can transform your outlook and propel you toward a more fulfilling life:

1. Growth Mindset: This mindset is based on the belief that our abilities and intelligence can be developed through effort and dedication. Instead of seeing challenges as roadblocks, individuals with a growth mindset view them as opportunities to learn and grow. This leads to greater resilience, perseverance, and a willingness to step outside one’s comfort zone.

2. Abundance Mentality: This mindset challenges the scarcity mindset, which believes there are limited resources and opportunities in the world. Instead, individuals with an abundance mentality believe that there is enough for everyone and that success does not come at the expense of others. This fosters collaboration, generosity, and a sense of gratitude.

3. Self-Compassion: This mindset involves treating oneself with kindness and understanding, especially during times of difficulty. It allows us to acknowledge our shortcomings and mistakes without harsh self-judgment. By practicing self-compassion, we cultivate inner peace, emotional resilience, and the ability to bounce back from setbacks.

When asked what she wants to teach the world she replied, "Don't stop searching. Too many times, in my old life, I put my search aside for more 'important matters.' I didn't realize the thing I was searching for held what was most important; my soul purpose." Jayne works daily on improving her craft and at times can get down on herself, but her favorite morning mantra is "It's a new day." and that's what she strives to start with.
