Let’s be honest—control is a full-time job with no benefits, and it’s not even hiring. So why are we still clinging so hard?

In this episode of Spiritual Growth & Wine, we’re flipping the script on surrender. Not the passive, powerless version you might’ve been taught—but the kind that invites clarity, freedom, and real peace. The kind that tastes a little like Tokaji wine: rich, rare, and deeply satisfying when you finally let go.

You will receive:

  • 4 practical, soul-rooted steps to help you loosen the grip


  • One of the truths about control (spoiler alert: it’s sneaky and it’s everywhere)


  • An everyday example of how surrender shifts the energy in a relationship—without anyone “losing”


  • Why surrender isn’t soft or weak—it’s sacred, intentional, and the most powerful move you can make

Plus, I’m sharing a wine moment with Tokaji, the Hungarian beauty that knows all about the art of waiting and releasing—because even grapes have to surrender.

And if this speaks to you? If your nervous system is raising its hand and whispering “yes, please…”—you’ll want to schedule a complimentary Love Chat with me by clicking the link below. Let’s talk about how surrender can stop being a concept and start being a practice.
