Kill Your Darlings: Why Letting Go Might Be the Smartest Thing You Do This Year
Manage episode 474479192 series 3553344
What are you holding onto—out of habit, hope, or fear?
Because sometimes the thing blocking your growth... is the thing you love the most.
In this episode of Her First 3 Years, we’re talking about the real reason many entrepreneurs stay stuck. It’s not your strategy. It’s not your social media.
It’s emotional attachment—to offers, routines, and ideas that no longer fit.
✨ Inspired by the concept of “killing your darlings,” from the brilliant Carla Biesinger, this episode is your permission slip to let go—with clarity and courage.
We’ll explore:
🧠 How to tell if your offer is a delayed payoff (it just needs time) or a dead-end project (it never will work)
💔 When it’s time to move on—and how to navigate the grief that can come with it
🚪 Why strategic quitting might be the smartest move you make this year
🔗 The 3 entrepreneurial attachment styles (and how they might be running your business)
✨ A small but powerful action to clear space and reignite your creativity
This episode is for the woman who’s ready to stop clinging and start creating—aligned, spacious, on purpose.
🎧 Press play for a mindset shift that’ll make room for your next big dream.
