What do you do when you know something needs to end, but you can't quite let go? This episode gives you the psychological science behind why endings are so hard, plus a six-step practice for moving through them with more ease. Drawing on the concept of the "action crisis" — that push-pull of doubt, confusion, and rumination we feel when we're clinging to something past its time — Diana walks through what she learned by ending something in her life, and the concrete steps that helped her let go and begin again.
Listen and Learn:
Why endings feel so hard — and the four signs you're stuck in an "action crisis"
A six-step practice for letting go: from "so be it, and so it is" to honoring what continues, to giving yourself permission to begin anew
Why getting the "kitten" doesn't mean replacing the "cat" — and why that's okay

Listen to the full episode now — and if you're moving through an ending of your own, share it with someone who needs the reminder that beginnings always follow.
