Listen to episode 170:
"Less sugar means more joy and freedom in my life": Wendi
April 14, 2024
Wendi and I have been good friends for several years. We have lots of things in common, including living our lives with less sugar and more joy. We can't chat without breaking into giggles!
In this episode, we talk about whole foods, as well as Wendi's prepping and self-reliance skills that help her look after her large family.
But especially, we talk about life, and how we choose to live it. Wendi recognizes that like most of us, she tends to lean towards comfort and getting out of pain versus dealing with the difficulties of life and choosing the joy and the freedom that comes with dealing with reality.
Wendi freely admits that all her life, she's turned to food to cope with her pain. And now she's learning to work through her emotions, instead of eating to cope with her pain.
She's learning that she can just feel the pain, be sad about the pain, and move on.
Wendi and I don't take ourselves too seriously. But we do talk about serious subjects from time to time, such as learning coping skills, choosing how we want to live our lives, and dealing with pain.
