| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Black Girl Burnout podcast, Kelly here. And today we are closing out our week all about how to be |
| 0:16.2 | expansive, how to live a life filled with possibilities. And I want to close out this week by reminding you of a way that you can inadvertently block your |
| 0:28.0 | own expansion. And that is by letting go of what no longer serves you. |
| 0:33.5 | We're going to talk about this in the conversation around our personal lives and our professional. |
| 0:40.9 | In what ways are you holding on to thoughts and behaviors and patterns that don't serve you |
| 0:48.9 | and are keeping people and places and professions in your life and stopping you from having |
| 0:55.8 | the expansive, big, bold, beautiful life of your dreams. |
| 1:01.1 | I know for me, I have realized sometimes the hardest way imaginable that when I try to hold |

| 1:56.8 | Sometimes we hold on to things that no longer serve us because we don't believe that we could do better, whether it's partnerships or career choices. |
| 2:08.0 | Whatever that is, we hold on and hoard that opportunity, that job, maybe even that person because we're scared of what would happen, what will fill the spot |
| 2:19.3 | in their absence and in that absence. So I want to spend a little bit of time about how to let |
| 2:27.2 | go of what no longer serves you and how to do that from the perspective of what is on the other |
| 2:33.7 | side of that, which is expansion, |
| 2:35.3 | which is more, which is abundance. |
| 2:38.0 | And tell you that personally, I have been both a person who did not want to let things go |
