It takes conscious, consistent and creative effort to make a life worth living.
Imagine fleeing a nuclear disaster as a child, only to face more unimaginable losses later in life. That's the story of Emiliya Zhivotovskaya, who shares her incredible journey on this episode of 'The One You Feed'. At just five years old, Emiliya and her family escaped from Kiev during the fall of Communism and the Chernobyl catastrophe. Settling in a New York suburb, she faced a whole new set of challenges. But her trials didn't end there.
Nine years later, she lost her brother in a tragic accident as he heroically saved his fiancé from drowning. And years after that, she faced the heart-wrenching loss of her mother. Despite these profound hardships, Emiliya chose not to succumb to despair. Instead, she found strength and awakening. In this heartfelt conversation with host Eric Zimmer, Emiliya delves into how she learned to integrate the 'good' and 'bad' wolves within her, using the well-known parable as a guiding metaphor.
She discusses the importance of consciously working with negative emotions and reframing our thoughts to build a life worth living. Emiliya also sheds light on how depression intertwines with our thoughts and physiology, offering practical insights for those struggling with similar issues. Her story is a testament to resilience and the power of perspective. If you're looking for inspiration and practical advice on navigating life's toughest moments, this episode is a must-listen.
