Unleash Your Life Episode 16, The 100% Project

Unleash Your Life!

Is shopping at the grocery store inevitable in today’s world, or is there another way? In November, two families with kids will embark on a year-long adventure to source all of their food from foraging, growing, fishing, hunting, or buying locally (within 50 miles of source). Come along with us as we go to 100%!

This Episode’s Action Points:

Join the Movement! — Join us in the 100% Project by choosing your own %. We won’t officially launch until November, but you can begin now. Sign up for The 100% Project Newsletter for inspiration, wild food ideas, and more!

Learn One New Wild Edible a Week — Choose once a week, once a month, whatever. Then hold yourself to learning and introducing into your diet one new wild edible per period. Eat the Weeds is a great online resource, and if you’re in the U.S. Midwest, Sam Thayer’s books will teach you tons.

Less Trash — Imagine that any trash you have will be dumped in your front yard instead of hauled away to be dumped somewhere else. Now, whenever you buy something, ask yourself if you want that trash in your yard. If not, consider whether you really need that thing, or if there is a way to buy it (or something similar) without the packaging.

Design Your Own 100% Project — It doesn’t have to be food. Maybe it’s learning a new skill, like a language, and you try to add 10% each month until you can do a full day with only your second tongue. Or maybe it’s learning to do a handstand or a goal to lose a certain amount of weight. Taking the long game by only holding yourself to a certain percent per month means that you’ll set the new habits in deeply and have a better chance of making lasting change.
