FJ 10: Emily Wierenga: Finding Joy in Losing Yourself

Emily Wierenga is our guest for the 10th episode of Finding Joy. Emily lives in a small Dutch hamlet in Canada and is a wife and mom to three kiddos. She's also the writer of several books, including her most recent, titled "Making it Home." Two years ago, Emily went on a blogger's trip with World Help to Uganda, where she fell in love with the people of Africa. Shortly after her trip she founded a non-profit called The Lulu Tree, where her team works to prevent tomorrow's orphans by equipping today's mothers. In this episode, Emily and I talk about her battles with anorexia and infertility, and how sometimes you really do have to lose yourself in order to discover who you really are. I'd love to know if our conversation touches your heart, so please leave a comment on the blog and we'd love to talk to you. Thanks again for listening!
