The Date Brazen Podcast

Mar 5 2024 • 35 mins

Are you striving to let go of the wrong people? What if we told you that the extent to which you're willing to bless and release the wrong people is directly linked to your path toward the right relationship? In this episode, Lily reveals her strategy for blessing and releasing the wrong people in your life, enabling your mind to shift its focus towards the right connections for you.

"Blessing and releasing" is a radical step towards fulfilling your desires. So, grab your note-taking tools because this episode is full of practical how-to's on this transformative process.

In this episode, you will learn:

  • Having people in your life who are not suitable for you is about the underlying fear that what you want is not possible or not worthy of what you want. That is worthy of your curiosity and compassion.

  • Categories of when to bless and release (B&R) someone

  • Different levels of connection deserve a different approach to blessing and releasing.

  • Tips for outlining a B&R moment for a breakup

  • Lily breaks down an incomplete roster of individuals to bless and release, including: the stonewaller, the Eeyore, the most intense human, and the pen-pal.

  • Reflection questions to help you determine if you need to bless and release someone

  • Text and out loud scripts for B&R like “Hey, thanks for hanging. I’m not feeling a romantic connection, wish you the best.”
