It’s really ok to be pissed - and how to get past it!
An eloquent interview with Ronda Barney, L.C.S.W., R.D

Can you do this one moment?  Just this one?  

I introduce you to Ronda Barney, L.C.S.W., R.D.  In this heartfelt interview she shares that despite all her professional experience, she found herself managing illness right after the birth of her first child and needing to implement all the strategies she taught to her clients.  She shares the joys, the moments of surrender, the heart, the grief, and the beauty of living a rich, full, connected, joy-FULL life even with illness.   

This is Episode One in Finally Effing Happy’s Sisterhood Stories, a series of interviews with kick-ass, can-do women who share their journey to joy through chronic illness.  You are not alone!  There is strength in our stories.  And it is an honor to get to share them with you.  Together we are powerful!

Today’s takeaways:

• It’s okay to be pissed at your illness - for a while. 
• The anticipation of having to struggle over and over and over again, keeps us from living in the moment.  Can you do this one moment?  
• Don’t do it alone! 
• You can’t control the future moments, but you can control what you are doing right now.  
• Learning to ask for help can be a gift.  
• The littlest things can be the most powerful.
• Sometimes the thing we are afraid we are going to lose as a result of our illness, is the very thing we are given as the greatest gift of our illness.
• When you deal with the emotional aspects of your illness, your body can heal easier.    
• Your body is a gift.
