I used to believe that if I was curious about something, I deserved to have it satisfied, or I needed to have my curiosity satisfied. Something I learned through recovery is that I don\\u2019t have to or need to have it satisfied; I\\u2019m able to NOT get closure on things. I think my strong desire to know things comes from my confusing upbringing, but now I don\\u2019t NEED to understand things like I used to. That\\u2019s why episode 148 of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast is about releasing the need to get closure and not be attached to outcomes!\\xa0

In this episode of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast, I\\u2019m sharing the importance of letting go of the need to understand why or how something exists the way it does, and allow things to remain open without closure. I also chat about actionable steps you can take right now to learn to be okay with not satisfying your curiosity. I used to act like I could make things turn out the way I wanted to if I just knew more - which isn\\u2019t the case at all. You cannot control the uncontrollable. When I learned this in recovery, I also learned the power in minding my own business.\\xa0

When you spend all your energy on what you cannot change, you aren\\u2019t spending enough energy on what you can control - yourself and your actions. So be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tips on living a more whole life and to hear even more about the points outlined above.

Thank you for listening!
