Has your heart ever longed for something you couldn't quite reach? Whether you're held back by circumstance, talent, timing, capabilities, fate, or luck it doesn't really matter on the "why" when it comes to dealing with the disappointment. What do you do in the interim of an unmet desire? In my experience it can be hard to hold both truths at the same time: a lot of this is out of my control, but not all of it. My nature is to white knuckle something to force it into existence, but sometimes there are odds bigger than me that I can't quite budge. Maybe your nature is to "let go and let God" then subsequently abdicating any responsibility in the situation. How can we hold both equally? Not forcing our will into a situation but also not being entirely laissez faire to things we hope for. I bring in my friend Gaia as we talk a little bit about our own journeys with this topic and also how to support a friend if perhaps they are in this current season. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/haven-the-podcast/support
