		<description><![CDATA[Amidst a sea of pregnancies, health challenges and changing relationships, many people are grappling with surrender in the face of new unknowns. For me, surrender is not a sign of defeat but a practice of letting go. When dealing with real life issues, letting go can feel scary because the stakes are high.
