Sherley watched a flight attendant move through a cabin with quiet confidence and felt something shift — she wanted that life. Instead of applying right away, she talked herself out of it for months, convinced she wasn’t “the type” they’d hire. When she finally came home from a trip and submitted the application anyway, she got the call five months later that changed the next thirteen years of her life.
Pillar: Release
This is Release in action — the fear and self-doubt that kept Sherley stuck weren’t facts, they were stories she’d accepted as truth. The pillar is about letting go of the guilt and limiting beliefs that stall you before you even start, and replacing that fear with what’s actually true. Sherley didn’t need new qualifications to apply — she needed to release the narrative telling her no on her own behalf.
Key Takeaway: Fear doesn’t ask permission to talk you out of your life — you have to release its grip before it writes the ending for you.

When you find yourself really settling with the reality that you are the side chick, when you find yourself tired of the games and/or the complacency, it’s time to ask yourself a few questions.
Solo therapy, partnered therapy, or group therapy... what exactly are the benefits? If you’re still on the fence about whether or not you should go and if therapy can really do anything for you... this post is for you.
