0:00.0	Welcome to Let It Be Easy with Susie Moore.
0:07.0	How do you know when to let something go versus confront an issue with maturity and with love?
0:20.0	This question comes up a lot because sometimes we think you know I deserve to speak up for myself. I need to address this issue. I don't want to just sweep it under the rug and move on and other times we don't always feel like confronting an issue, but secretly letting things go over time is building up resentment within us, and we know that we're not communicating. We know that we're holding back, we know that we're
0:45.3	almost shrinking so that we don't bother other people or ruffle any feathers.
0:50.9	So the questions come up to me many times over the years, you know, how do I know whether I should confront something, have a conversation, face something head on, versus lovingly surrender and let go.

1:40.1	about and to address versus going, yeah, you know what, I'm going to let this one slide.
1:46.6	And that will bring you peace.
1:49.3	The most important thing to identify when it comes to knowing which path to take when you're confronted with something that
1:55.1	offends you or makes you unhappy or makes you feel unheard or unseen overlooked, invalidated,
2:00.6	any of those negative emotions that naturally flow to us when we're in a situation or having a conversation or we overhear something that we're not happy with.
2:10.0	It's easy to be in this place of, or should I, shouldn't I, should I say something, should I hold back,
