Releasing the Weight: Finding Freedom from Overbearing Responsibility

We can only be responsible for ourselves. I encourage you to let go of the burden of everything that you're carrying, to look at each of those things and ask: is that really mine to carry?
Ever felt like you're carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders? In this episode of 'Recover Your Soul,' Rev. Rachel Harrison tackles the heavy topic of feeling overly responsible for others' lives and well-being. It's easy to slip into the habit of taking on too much, especially when it comes to family, work, and friends. But when does being responsible turn into an unhealthy need to control?
Rachel dives into her own experiences with alcoholism and control addiction, sharing how she learned to let go and focus on her own recovery. Through the lens of Soul Recovery, she offers practical advice on shifting the focus back to ourselves and letting go of burdens that aren't ours to carry. Rachel emphasizes the importance of self-care and self-responsibility, urging listeners to ask themselves if the weight they feel is truly theirs to bear.
She also highlights the power of community support and spiritual coaching in this journey. This episode is a heartfelt guide for anyone struggling with codependency or control issues, offering tools from positive psychology, 12-step programs, and New Thought Metaphysics. It's not just about letting go; it's about finding freedom and peace within yourself.
