Releasing Control and Returning to Trust with Judith Costa

In this episode of the Path of the Awakened Heart podcast, I'm joined by unconditional love coach and Akashic Records teacher Judith Costa for a grounded, deeply human conversation about what happens when control no longer works. Together, we explore how love, trust, and embodiment become living anchors during times of uncertainty, illness, loss, and transition. Judith shares candidly from her own lived experiences — including cancer, divorce, and profound life reorientation — and how these moments invited her to release perfectionism, dissolve the illusion of control, and return to trust as a way of living. We talk about self-love beyond the mind, why control is often rooted in fear and self-abandonment, and how learning to trust life again begins in the body, not the intellect. This conversation is an invitation to soften your grip, reconnect with your inner truth, and allow life to meet you where you are. Episode Highlights: [04:00] – Judith speaks to how control, self-sacrifice, and perfectionism quietly disconnect us from ourselves, and why love begins when we stop managing life from fear. [11:00] – A conversation on making self-love livable day to day, including small rituals, presence, and learning to be your own steady support rather than outsourcing safety. [19:00] – Judith shares how the Akashic Records supported her through cancer, divorce, and financial uncertainty, offering a felt sense of trust when logic and planning fell away.
