Julie’s Shotglass of Wisdom: Embracing Self-Sufficiency in a Tech-Driven World
I have my running shoes on my feet, I have a sweater on my shoulders, I have a bottle of water with me, I am self-sufficient and when I go home I don't need to call out for food, because I have food in my fridge. I am self-sufficient, I can give to myself what I need and I don't have to reach outside of myself anymore.
How often do we lean on our gadgets and social media for a sense of connection and validation? In this thought-provoking episode of '2 Sober Chicks', Julie dives into the critical topic of self-sufficiency. She opens up about how our tech-heavy lives can make us overly reliant on external sources, distracting us from the strength and simplicity found within ourselves.
Julie recounts a personal story about a walk that led her to realize she already had everything she needed to take care of herself. This moment of clarity helped her avoid the trap of seeking fulfillment outside of herself. She also touches on the contrast between consumerism and humanism, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, which has prompted many to reevaluate their priorities and values. Julie's message is clear: the journey to self-sufficiency isn't always easy, but it's incredibly rewarding.
