Going through challenges in life can often feel like keeping a flickering candle lit during a storm.

Difficult experiences or phases of life are inevitable – they’re just part of the human experience. But often, these experiences are paired with a lacking sense of control and an inability to be the person we used to be up until that point. Which can lead to feelings of depression and a dwindling motivation to do just about anything.

Trust me, I’ve been there. If you’ve been following me, you know my kidney transplant story, and this experience has undoubtedly been the toughest and darkest time of my life.

At times, it felt like I’d never see the light at the end of the tunnel, but eventually I regained the energy, spark, and passion to keep moving forward, which I didn’t have for a very long time.

In this episode of the Mind Your Health Show, I share the exact “bare minimum” routine I followed every single day, even on my toughest of days, that kept me going, and eventually got me through to the other side of the tunnel.

If you’re going through challenging times, I want you to know that you’re not alone. With even just the smallest amount of hope, continue to put one foot in front of the other and I promise you’ll see the light at the end of the tunnel.
