What if the ache you’re carrying isn’t something broken — but something shedding? In this episode of The Compass Within, Jasmine sits with the often-unspoken grief that comes with becoming — the quiet mourning that arrives when familiar patterns, relationships, and versions of self can no longer follow you forward.

This episode is an invitation to slow down with the moments when your inner world shifts. When what once felt tolerable begins to feel heavy. When your nervous system asks you to choose presence over performance, honesty over habit. Rather than forcing closure, Jasmine explores how to stay with what’s unraveling long enough to understand what it’s teaching you.

This compass nudge is an offering of release and self-loyalty. Through gentle reflection, you’re reminded that not everything is meant to come with you — and letting go doesn’t mean you failed or misjudged. Sometimes grief is simply the soul adjusting to its next truth. When we listen to what falls away, we don’t lose ourselves — we find our direction again.

Direction Reflections for your weekly path:

Notice what feels heavier than it used to. Not to judge it or fix it — just to name it. Where has your tolerance quietly changed?

Ask yourself: What am I still carrying out of habit, not alignment? Let the answer be honest, even if it feels tender.

Practice releasing without explanation. This week, allow yourself to choose rest, distance, or softness without justifying why.
