When Was the Last Time You Tried Something New?

In the last email we talked about our relationship with food. So, when was the last time you were adventorous with your food? Have you really paid attention to what food brings your body joy and what causes it to be sluggish?

In the latest episode of Choose to Live, Love & Grow, Kate Galli and I talk about what it is like being on a plant-based diet. When you want to eat a certain way, it can be difficult to maintain that in social settings or dining out.  People want you to eat or drink like them and may not be as accepting of your decisions.

But, just like most changes in our life, there is a way to approach the situtation with love and empathy where you can stay true to who you are and what you believe and still have a good time with friends and family.

One amazing piece of information Kate gave us is how to handle overwhelm:

Only focus on what you can control
Value the small wins
Eliminate unnecessary inputs
Respect structure is freedom
Willingness to upgrade freedom structure
Have awareness to catch a sip
Escape to nature daily
Lock and load the big rocks first
Mindfulness

Anchor in a Storm
Good Morning {{first_name}}, A ship drops anchor in a storm, and the anchor does not stop the waves. It does not calm the wind. The boat still rocks, still takes on spray, still gets thrown sideways by every swell that rolls through. What the anchor does is refuse to move with the boat. It is fixed to something underneath the chaos, not tied to anything that is also being tossed around by it. H...
Highlighting The Forge
Good Morning {{first_name}}, Today I want to pull back the curtain a little on The Forge, what it actually is, and where I'm taking it. What The Forge Is The Forge is a weekly men's brotherhood group here in Fort Wayne, online too if you're not local. Guys show up and talk about what's actually going on. Wins, challenges, the stuff most of us carry alone. No fixing unless it's asked for. No per...
