Why do you still feel stuck even though you've worked hard, achieved success, and done everything the world told you to do?

In this deeply personal episode of the WE Podcast, Joe Mittiga shares one of the most profound lessons of his spiritual journey: feeling stuck isn't a sign that you're failing. It's often a sign that your soul is inviting you to stop living by the world's rules and begin living from a place of surrender, purpose, and inner abundance.

Joe explains why surrender isn't weakness or giving up. It's the process of releasing the illusion that control creates peace and learning to trust the deeper wisdom already within you. Drawing from his own journey through addiction, recovery, decades of emotional healing, and spiritual awakening, he reveals the seven stages of surrender that transformed his life from one driven by fear, achievement, and external validation into one filled with peace, purpose, freedom, and prosperity from the inside out.

You'll discover why so many people feel trapped despite outward success, how fear keeps us chasing approval, money, and certainty, why healing begins by asking "Why am I holding on?" instead of "How do I let go?", and how listening to your inner guidance can help you build a life rooted in authenticity rather than expectations.

Whether you're navigating a major life transition, questioning your purpose, or simply sensing there's something more waiting for you, this conversation will help you understand that you're not broken, and you're not falling behind.

You're being invited to awaken.

Because the life you've been searching for isn't found by controlling more.

It's found by surrendering to who you were created to become.
