29:02Dr. Davina: You are listening to Dr. Davina Stats. Why letting go feels so hard. Why is it so hard to let go of something we already know isn't for us anymore? Maybe it's about letting go of what we hoped it would be. The expectations. The version of life we imagined. The way we thought it would turn out. And letting go can feel like losing something, even if we never really had it. Maybe we hold on because it feels safer than the unknown. But what if holding on is holding you back? You are listening to Dr. Davina Statz. Sit back, relax, and enjoy.

48:06Dr. Davina: You are listening to Dr. Davina Statz. Sit back, relax, and enjoy. Opening your hands just a little. What if you just loosened your grip a little? Just enough to acknowledge it. Just enough to be honest with yourself about it. Just enough to say, I don't have to carry this anymore if I don't want to. Maybe that's where it starts, because sometimes you've been holding it for so long, it's hard to let it go. If you've been holding on and it's hard to let go, my books offer simple reminders and gentle encouragement to help you shift your perspective and move forward. You can find them on Dr. Davina's Dots website under read.

48:52Dr. Davina: Now don't go anywhere. Sit back, relax, and enjoy. I'll be right back.
