The String Between Holding On and Letting Go - Kites

The String Between Holding On and Letting Go - Kites

We spend much of our lives learning how to hold on.  Sometimes the harder lesson is learning when to let go.  In this episode of The Journey Inside, Andy reflects on the tension between love, trust, protection, and freedom. Through the simple image of a kite, he explores what happens when our desire to protect the people we love begins to pull too tightly—and why part of loving someone well may be trusting them enough to fly.  📘 In Jake’s Shoes: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0G6G8R4QT [https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0G6G8R4QT]   Learn more at www.andrewcphillips.com [http://www.andrewcphillips.com/]    Follow Us : Join Inside The Pages [https://www.andrewcphillips.com/?utm_campaign=a561263f-b38f-43c7-a1a6-b530f7f62d28&utm_source=so&utm_medium=lp#inside-the-pages-subscribe-list] - Goodreads [https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/59753544.Andrew_C_Phillips] - Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/andrew_cphillips/] - Facebook [https://www.facebook.com/ACPhillipsAuthor/] - LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-c-phillips-7b029b12/] - www.andrewcphillips.com [https://www.andrewcphillips.com/] - YouTube-Shorts  [https://www.youtube.com/@AndrewC.PhillipsAuthor/shorts]     Original music by Andrew C.

Teach Us (A Parable)

What if a child asked you a question… you couldn’t answer?  In this episode of The Journey Inside, Teach Us, a simple parable reveals how quickly we decide who someone is—and what we might miss when we do.  We observe.  We measure.  But we don’t always see the whole story.  📘 In Jake’s Shoes: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0G6G8R4QT [https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0G6G8R4QT]  Learn more at www.andrewcphillips.com [http://www.andrewcphillips.com/]   Follow Us : Join Inside The Pages [https://www.andrewcphillips.com/?utm_campaign=a561263f-b38f-43c7-a1a6-b530f7f62d28&utm_source=so&utm_medium=lp#inside-the-pages-subscribe-list] - Goodreads [https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/59753544.Andrew_C_Phillips] - Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/andrew_cphillips/] - Facebook [https://www.facebook.com/ACPhillipsAuthor/] - LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-c-phillips-7b029b12/] - www.andrewcphillips.com [https://www.andrewcphillips.com/] - YouTube-Shorts  [https://www.youtube.com/@AndrewC.PhillipsAuthor/shorts]    Original music by Andrew C.

If We Didn’t Have Kids…

If We Didn’t Have Kids  This episode of The Journey Inside reflects on a simple moment that grew into something more—a song, a memory, and a reminder of how children make meaning in ways we don’t always expect.  Through a return to that moment, it explores what happens when we step back, listen more closely, and allow understanding to unfold on its own.  A quiet look at connection, perspective, and the small beginnings that often matter most.

I Was The Other Kid

Not all friendships begin the way we expect.  Sometimes they start in the space between being left out… and being noticed.  The Journey Inside explores the moments in childhood that don’t seem important at the time—but end up shaping who we become.  If you’ve ever wondered why certain memories still stay with you…this episode will take you there.  If this episode stayed with you, I’d be grateful if you shared it with someone who might need it today.  Follow Us : Join Inside The Pages [https://www.andrewcphillips.com/?utm_campaign=a561263f-b38f-43c7-a1a6-b530f7f62d28&utm_source=so&utm_medium=lp#inside-the-pages-subscribe-list] - Goodreads [https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/59753544.Andrew_C_Phillips] - Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/andrew_cphillips/] - Facebook [https://www.facebook.com/ACPhillipsAuthor/] - LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-c-phillips-7b029b12/] - www.andrewcphillips.com [https://www.andrewcphillips.com/] - YouTube-Shorts  [https://www.youtube.com/@AndrewC.PhillipsAuthor/shorts]    Original music by Andrew C.
