The Harvest: Letting Go

Show Notes
We usually think of harvest as the reward—the fruit, the results, the success.
But harvest is also about endings. And how we end a season says a lot about the kind of leaders we are.
In this episode of Your Preshift, we explore how our mindset—scarcity or abundance—shapes the way we let go:
Of people.
Of processes.
Of plans that no longer serve.
Scarcity says:
“Hold on. There might not be enough.”
“Don’t risk the loss.”
“Keep what’s working—even if it’s no longer right.”
Abundance says:
“There is enough for all of us.”
“What I release creates room for something/someone new.”
“Letting go can be an act of care.”
We’ll walk through:
