Necessary Endings: How Letting Go Fuels Growth | E197

Leadership is Feminine

In this episode of Leadership is Feminine, Kris Plachy invites us to explore the transformative power of belief and the role it plays in achieving our goals. Kris challenges us to rethink the foundational beliefs that shape our actions. She unpacks why we often struggle to achieve what we genuinely want and explains how shifting our mindset can open doors to growth and fulfillment. Drawing inspiration from Dr. Henry Cloud’s book Necessary Endings, Kris examines the art of letting go. She likens this to pruning a rose bush, where cutting back is necessary to allow the healthiest growth and new possibilities to emerge. This serves as a reminder that releasing what no longer serves us can create space for new possibilities. Kris also expands on the idea of ‘purging,’ encouraging leaders to apply this principle across their lives and businesses. Whether it’s clients, vendors, technology tools, relationships, or team members, she emphasizes the importance of evaluating what aligns with our purpose and letting go of what doesn’t. “All that fear that you had that it would be terrible, fueled you keeping someone in your business. When the truth is, releasing them is going to create so much space and freedom for them, too,” Kris reminds us. This episode is a call to action for leaders who are ready to eliminate the elements holding them back and to invest their energy into what truly matters. Are you ready to challenge your beliefs, release what’s no longer serving you, and step into a new version of yourself? Tune in and discover how these practices can revolutionize your life and leadership journey.
