The Bittersweetness of Endings

Hello ,

As we close out this month’s series on letting go, I want to take a moment to talk about the bittersweetness of endings—because even when you know something was the right choice, it can still leave you feeling sad, uncertain, or unsettled.

Letting go doesn’t always come with closure. Sometimes you second-guess your decision. Sometimes you deeply miss the person, job, or version of yourself that you released. And sometimes, you just wish you could hold onto the good parts without the pain. That’s all normal.

You can miss something and still know it was no longer right for you. You can feel sad and still stand by your decision. You can hold gratitude, grief, relief, and longing—all at once.

A Personal Note - Letting Go After Soul Pole

A few weeks ago, I wrapped up my Soul Pole Women's Empowerment workshop, and it’s been sitting heavy on my heart in that familiar bittersweet way. I had such a lovely time with everyone—I didn’t want it to end. I truly cherished our time together.

At the same time, I feel so grateful that it ended on such a positive, impactful note. I’ve watched so many participants grow, reconnect with themselves, and support one another with joy and vulnerability. That’s something I’ll always carry with me.

And now that this cycle is complete, I’m looking forward to starting the next one. That’s the gift of letting go—endings make space for new beginnings. I wouldn’t be able to meet the next amazing group of participants if I held onto the old one forever.

When Clients Say Goodbye

It’s often hard to say goodbye in my therapy practice too. I care so deeply for my clients—individuals, couples, families. I feel honored to walk alongside them. So, when it’s time to part ways, it’s never easy.

Sometimes we get to have a closing session and reflect together on all the progress and healing that’s taken place. Other times, someone sends a quick message to cancel or just disappears, and we don’t get to say goodbye. Those moments are especially tough.

But I’ve learned to trust that people are on their own path. I like to believe they’re continuing to grow, heal, and move toward the life they want—even if I don’t get to see that part of the journey.

So wherever you are right now—whether you’re navigating an ending, sitting in the in-between, or stepping into a new beginning—I hope you’ll be gentle with yourself and give yourself permission to feel everything. Letting go doesn’t mean forgetting. It means honoring what was, and choosing to make space for what’s next. And what’s next might be even more beautiful than you imagined.
