What I keep discovering These Days is that I have to run towards the fear and I actually have to sit with my anger and I actually have to look my envy right in the eye, and if I can be still with it, it eventually transforms into something beautiful.
Have you ever felt like running away from your toughest emotions? In this episode of 'The One You Feed', host Eric Zimmer chats with bestselling author Glennon Doyle Melton about the art of staying open to life's ups and downs. They dive into the timeless parable of the two wolves, which teaches that the wolf you nurture is the one that thrives.
Glennon shares her deeply personal journey through addiction and recovery, revealing how she learned to confront her emotions head-on instead of avoiding them. Her stories are raw and real, touching on the transformative power of vulnerability and authenticity. Throughout their conversation, Glennon emphasizes that facing pain can lead to profound personal growth. She talks about how writing has been a crucial tool for processing her feelings and how it has allowed her to connect more deeply with others.
One of the standout themes is the importance of being still with difficult emotions like fear, anger, and envy, rather than numbing them away. Glennon believes that by embracing these emotions, we can use them as catalysts for positive change. The episode also explores the mind-body connection and the pitfalls of superficial conversations. Glennon's honesty and openness about her struggles with addiction, recovery, and marriage are truly inspiring.
Her message is one of hope, encouraging listeners to face their emotions and use them as sources of strength. Whether you're battling addiction, going through a tough time, or simply seeking inspiration, this episode offers valuable insights and a comforting sense of solidarity.
