• 0:00
  Sis, what if peace this year doesn't come from doing more, but from finally letting go?
• 0:07
  What if the anxiety, the heaviness, the emotional exhaustion you've been carrying
• 0:12
  isn't because you're behind, but because you're holding on to things God never
• 0:17
  asked you to carry into this new season?
• 0:20
  In today's episode, we're talking about seven things God may be asking you to
• 0:25
  release so you can step into the new year lighter, clearer, and crowned.
• 0:31
  If you're craving peace, clarity, and a fresh start with God, this episode is for you.
• 0:37
  If you're done chasing broken love, empty promises, and lukewarm men,
• 0:42
  and you're finally ready to reclaim your crown, heal your heart,
• 0:46
  and attract the God-led love you were always meant for, you're in the right place.
• 0:50
  Hi, I'm Emily Jordan, your faith-based healed feminine guide and relationship coach.
• 0:56
  I went from repeating the same heartbreaking cycles to experiencing a godly, healthy, aligned love.
• 1:02
  And now I help women just like you heal, rise, and prepare for God's very best.
• 1:09
  So are you ready to begin your royal training?
• 1:12
  Grab your crown, your heart, and your journal. Your royal transformation begins now.
• 1:21
  All right, sis. Hi, how are you? Welcome back to the show today.
• 1:27
  Your royal training ground where women reclaim their crowns,
• 1:32
  heal their hearts, and prepare for God's very best in love.
• 1:37
  As we step into a new year, there's so much pressure to reinvent yourself,
• 1:42
  set your goals, and become someone new.
• 1:46
  But before God builds anything new, he often asks us to lay something down.
• 1:54
  Scripture tells us, see, I am doing a new thing, Isaiah 43, 19.
• 2:01
  But God can't pour something new into hands that are still gripping the old.
• 2:08
  So today, I want you to listen with honesty, not judgment.
• 2:13
  With openness, not pressure. Let the Holy Spirit gently show you what no longer
• 2:19
  belongs in this next chapter.
• 2:22
  Since I've learned this the hard way, there were seasons in my life where I
• 2:27
  wanted God to give me new results, but I was still carrying old mindsets,
• 2:33
  old habits, and old emotional patterns.
• 2:37
  I wanted peace, but I held on to control.
• 2:41
  I wanted healing, but I replayed the past.
• 2:44
  I wanted God's best, but I still listened to the voices that didn't honor my
• 2:50
  worth. And every time God moved me into a new season, he first asked me a question.
• 2:57
  Are you willing to let go? Because growth requires surrender.
• 3:03
  And peace always comes after release.
• 3:07
  That's why I believe this episode is not just timely, it's necessary.
• 3:12
  So here are seven things that God may be asking you to release before you step into this new year.
• 3:20
  Number one, letting go of the comparison trap. Sis, comparison is sneaky.
• 3:26
  It doesn't always sound loud. Sometimes it sounds like I should be further by now.
• 3:32
  Or why does it seem easier for everyone else?
• 3:35
  And before you realize it, you're
• 3:38
  questioning God's timing, doubting yourself, and shrieking your joy.
• 3:42
  But hear me, comparison will always distort your peace because it pulls your
• 3:48
  eyes off of what God is doing in you and places them on what he's doing around you.
• 3:55
  This year, we're letting comparison go.
• 3:58
  You are not late. You are not behind.
• 4:01
  You are not forgotten.
• 4:04
  You are exactly where God can meet you, and that's enough.
• 4:08
  Number two, letting go of needing approval.
• 4:12
  Sis, needing approval will keep you exhausted. When everyone gets a vote in
• 4:18
  your life, you slowly lose your voice.
• 4:21
  You start explaining yourself too much, second-guessing your decisions,
• 4:26
  ignoring your intuition just to keep the peace.
• 4:29
  But God never asked you to live approved by people.
• 4:33
  He asked you to live obedient to Him. So this year, release the pressure to
• 4:40
  be liked, chosen, or validated.
• 4:43
  You don't need permission to walk in purpose. God already chose you. Don't forget that.
• 4:50
  Number three, letting go of dwelling on the past. This has gots to go, girl. Seriously.
• 4:57
  The past can teach you, but it cannot lead you.
• 5:01
  I know the memories come back, the mistakes, the relationships,
• 5:05
  the moments you wish you could redo everything.
• 5:09
  But replaying old chapters doesn't heal you. It traps you.
• 5:14
  If God wanted you to live there, he wouldn't have carried you this far.
• 5:20
  So this year, we're letting go of self-punishment. We're honoring the lesson
• 5:24
  and releasing the shame.
• 5:27
  What's behind you no longer gets to define what's ahead of you.
• 5:34
  Number four, letting go of unforgiveness.
• 5:38
  Unforgiveness is heavy. It feels like protection, but it's actually a prison.
• 5:44
  It keeps your heart guarded in places God wants to heal you.
• 5:48
  Forgiveness is not saying what they did was okay.
• 5:52
  Forgiveness is saying you no longer get to control my peace.
• 5:58
  Take it back, sis. Come on.
• 6:00
  This year, we're choosing freedom. Not because they deserve it,
• 6:05
  but because you deserve peace.
• 6:08
  Number five, letting go of controlling outcomes. This one is for my strong women.
• 6:16
  Control often looks like confidence, but underneath, it's actually fear.
• 6:22
  Fear of being disappointed again. Fear of trusting God fully. Fear of letting go.
• 6:28
  Sis, control will wear you out. God never asked you to manage the future.
• 6:34
  He asked you to trust him with it.
• 6:37
  This year, we're releasing the need to force relationships, timelines, and outcomes.
• 6:43
  What God has for you does not require anxiety to obtain.
• 6:49
  Number six, letting go of perfectionism. Perfectionism keeps you stuck.
• 6:55
  Waiting until you're healed enough, ready enough, perfect enough.
• 6:59
  But God doesn't move through perfection.
• 7:02
  He moves through surrender.
• 7:04
  You don't need to have it all figured out to be faithful. Progress is holy.
• 7:09
  This year, release the pressure to get it all right.
• 7:13
  Showing up imperfect but willing is enough. 7.
• 7:20
  Letting go of negative self-talk,
• 7:23
  Listen to how you speak to yourself, friend. Those quiet thoughts matter.
• 7:28
  They shape how you love, how you choose, and how you show up.
• 7:34
  Negative self-talk convinces you that you're too much, not enough,
• 7:39
  or broken beyond repair.
• 7:41
  But the truth is, God doesn't speak to you that way.
• 7:44
  This year, we're releasing the inner critic and replacing it with truth.
• 7:50
  You are chosen, you are healed, you are becoming, and peace follows women who
• 7:56
  believe that. So start believing.
• 7:59
  All right, now for your royal assignment. This week, write down one thing God
• 8:04
  is asking you to release before stepping into the new year.
• 8:08
  Or maybe you need to write down two or three, or maybe all seven.
• 8:12
  But I want you to focus on the top one to two, maybe three, that you feel really need to go, all right?
• 8:23
  And I want you to pray over it, journal about it, lay it at his feet.
• 8:29
  Peace is waiting on the other side of surrender.
• 8:32
  Says God is not asking you to become someone new overnight. That's absolutely impossible.
• 8:38
  He's simply inviting you to stop carrying what no longer belongs to you.
• 8:43
  You are allowed to enter this new year lighter. you are
• 8:46
  allowed to choose peace and you are allowed to
• 8:50
  let go let me speak a blessing over you before we go today may god steady your
• 8:56
  heart quiet your mind and restore your peace may he heal what's been heavy and
• 9:02
  renew what's been weary and may this be the year you walk in clarity confidence and royal alignment,
• 9:10
  Until next time. Sis, you did that. You showed up for your healing and that is royal energy.
• 9:17
  If this episode challenged you, grew you, or called you higher,
• 9:21
  share it with another sister who's ready to reclaim her crown too.
• 9:24
  And if you've got 30 seconds, it would bless me big if you'd leave a review on Apple Podcast.
• 9:30
  It helps more women step into their royal identity and join the Good Guys Society
• 9:34
  movement. Until next time, keep your crown on, your standard tie,
• 9:39
  and your heart in royal alignment.
