Listen "Release What's Causing The Infection"
Episode Synopsis
What if the very thing you’re holding onto is the reason you can’t move forward? In this powerful episode of Let’s Talk About It with Pastor E, the spotlight is on the life-changing act of letting go. Pastor E invites us into a raw, honest conversation about the hidden weight of pain, trauma, and toxic attachments and how refusing to release them infects not only us but everyone around us. Through vivid analogies, from Frozen’s anthem of release to the scorching pain of holding onto a hot stove, Pastor E shows how clinging to the past leads to bitterness, depression, and cycles of damage that can last for generations.But here’s the tension: why do we stay stuck in situations we know are destroying us? Is it fear of the unknown? Is it the comfort of coping instead of the courage to heal? With unflinching truth and compassion, Pastor E challenges us to face what we’ve avoided, whether it’s toxic relationships, unhealed trauma, or destructive habits, and to finally drop them like they’re hot.This episode is a lifeline, calling you to release what’s keeping you bound so you can step into freedom, wholeness, and the life you were meant to live.In This Episode:[00:05] Introduction to the podcast[00:35] Letting go: The Frozen analogy[01:23] The consequences of holding on[02:42] Drop it like it’s hot: Letting go of pain[03:51] Stuck in trauma: The Percy Jackson analogy[05:04] The damage of not letting go[06:12] Walking away from toxic people[07:23] Living from a place of hurt[08:32] The cost of staying stuck[09:47] Fear of the unknown and coping vs. healing[10:54] Why we don’t leave: Loneliness and fear[11:54] The need for self-reflection and healing[12:51] Generational impact of unhealed trauma[13:58] Final encouragement to let go[14:14] Podcast closing and call to actionNotable Quotes[01:18] "Some of you are holding on to something that you need to let go. And because you haven't let it go, you're now becoming more and more damaged." — Pastor E[03:54] "We become depressed, all of these things, because we're still holding on to something that we should be letting go. If you never let it go, how can you move on?" — Pastor E[06:21] "The only person that's going to fix you is you." — Pastor E[07:04] "You have to let it go because you're being infected. Everything you do is based off of what happened to you." — Pastor E[09:27] "Coping ain't healing. That's just dealing with you for the moment." — Pastor E[11:21] "We don't leave because we don't want to be alone. That's our problem. We don't want to be alone." — Pastor E[12:28] “Another reason we don't leave is fear. Fear of the unknown. It's fear of the unknown. What is it going to look like? What is it going to look like if I walk away from this situation" — Pastor EResources and LinksLet's Talk About It PodcastApple PodcastsSpotifyPastor Eric Brown WebsiteEmail
