Focus Sessions: Woke Corporations - You Don't Have to Give Them Your Money

Hi All!

Many folks are frustrated with the state of our world, and I'm asked all the time "What are things I can do to combat the evil of the world? I'm just one person against this government."

It can be tough because the forces at play are so large that people don't know how to really make a difference. Here is what I say:

1. You can chose not to participate as much as possible. Most everyone still needs to buy items at the local market, so evaluate what you are buying. Don't buy processed foods or give your money to the companies that don't support your ideals (I have a list of WOKE companies at the end of this post).

Do you really need the big jug of soda or the cans of Coke? The bliss point in your brain may say yes, but you waist line and insulin surges say NO.
Can you start to drink more water or tea (you'd be doing your body a favor - soda and sugary drinks are some of the worst culprits of inflammation)?
Skip the frozen food isles unless you are buying veggies. Don't wander around here. Temptation is everywhere and you don't need the pizza pockets or toaster pastries.
Challenge yourself to shop the perimeter of the store and RARELY dip into the isles.
I realize "junk" food is most times cheaper and easier than wholesome food (there is a reason for this). If you are on a budget or time poor, try meal prepping or seek out budget friendly meals (I offer coaching and can help with this).

2. Eliminate all things Disney - you don't need it and won't miss it. As a mom of four, trust me, you will be ok.

3. If you love football like most Americans, you don't have to buy all their "stuff." Watch the game that streams for free (don't buy their special games or tickets), even tailgate and make an afternoon of it. You can watch if your heart can't resist, but you don't have to support buying insanely high priced tickets and $12 hot dogs. Anything you do not buy is revenue they do not gain.

4. If there are things you enjoy eating, drinking, doing etc, but they are created by a "woke" corporations, find a substitute. There is always an alternative, and worst case if you don't like the alternative in the food, drink or activity, then maybe the item is no longer serving you and shouldn't be in your life. I offer Life, Wellness, Spiritual and Religious Coaching and am good at helping people sort this out - just ask me or if you are in a tough spot, schedule a session.

Below is an article a good friend shared on the blog. I want to share it with you so you can be informed when spending your hard earned dollars.

Blessings,
