EP93: Release Emotional Baggage

Join me as we explore the misunderstood weight of emotional baggage—a burden many of us carry unknowingly. In this video, I share insights into how this baggage forms, why we hold onto it, and how it keeps us from experiencing true joy. Together, we'll uncover how emotional baggage isn't about "fixing" something broken but about seeing through the stories we tell ourselves about past experiences.

This isn't about getting rid of baggage by force but about creating space to see its innocent nature, its misunderstandings, and how these stories impact our perceived identity. Through gentle, honest self-inquiry, we can begin to let go, not out of resistance, but as a natural response to understanding what's real and true.

This video offers an invitation—not advice, not rules—to reflect on your own direct experience. Let's sit with what is, together, and explore how a lighter heart leads to a fuller life.
