Hi Cory
This is the manual way to do it - someone may have a cooler of way of doing
it.

   1. In the Layer Styling panel, click on Label panel.
   2. Under Placement, you will see that that the X/Y will be coloured
   yellow.
   3. Click on each of these and select 'Clear'
   4. N.B. Other parameters may still be affected as well - they will be
   coloured in yellow - just clear them as well.

If you need to do this for individual labels, select the features and click
on the Label Properties and reset/clear out the parameters

I hope this helps, and keen to hear other ways.

Cheers
Em
