That Urge to Let Things Go Isn’t Random (Here’s the Real Reason): Weekly Momentum | Ep.21

If you’ve been feeling the urge to let things go lately—projects, habits, commitments, even old ways of working—this episode will help you understand why that feeling is showing up right now and how to work with it.

In this episode of Weekly Momentum, I walk you through how the 4-Step Weekly Momentum process gives you a rhythm you can come back to every single week—especially during seasonal shifts like the Lunar New Year. As we move out of the reflective, shedding energy of the Year of the Snake and step into the forward-moving momentum of the Year of the Horse, this is a powerful time to release what no longer fits before you push ahead.

You’ll learn how to:

  • rewind without judgment
  • realign when something is complete
  • plan based on the season you’re in
  • plug in by creating space instead of forcing momentum

I also share why honoring your intuition—especially when it’s nudging you to clear, close loops, or simplify—is not unproductive. It’s preparation. And at the end, I talk about designing a schedule that actually reflects who you are now, including time audits, color-coding your time, and using Pomodoros to create a repeatable weekly rhythm.

If you’ve been craving clarity, lightness, and clean momentum—this episode is for you.
