Most of us don’t get crushed by a single boulder — we get worn down by gravel. Those small moments of over-responsibility, constant re-checking, and endless overthinking slowly drain our peace. In this episode of Optimizing Beyond, Josh Negron dives deep into the art of letting go — not as apathy, but as disciplined stewardship.

Control promises certainty it can’t deliver. Letting go, however, is wisdom in motion: doing your part with clarity and excellence, then releasing outcomes, timing, and other people’s emotions. Josh offers a practical roadmap to reclaim peace through focus, boundaries, and trust.

Takeaways:

• Apply the Selective Focus Framework to right-size your responsibility.
• Practice boundary reps with real-life language you can use today.
• Learn the Trust Transfer Protocol to release control under stress.
• Understand how control disguises insecurity and fuels burnout.
• Build systems and faith habits that protect peace and clarity.

Letting go isn’t quitting — it’s quitting the illusion of control. This episode will help you act where your action matters most, lead with calm clarity, and finally recover your peace.
