547 - Why I don't Eat Green Bananas Anymore

Published: Jan. 10, 2023, 5 a.m.

What do eating green bananas and decluttering have in common? More than one would think! Join Kathi Lipp and writer, educator, and fellow recovering green banana eater Amy Betters-Midtvedt as they laugh and discuss their way through topics such as:

  • How to figure out what we like and not settle all the time.
  • How to not get stuck in a poverty mindset.
  • Why it\u2019s okay to order an ice cream sundae just for yourself!

And as promised by Kathi in the episode, here\u2019s a copy of Amy\u2019s Green Banana Article for your enjoyment and edification.

There was a time I just ate bananas.
Like any banana. I\u2019d buy them put them in my lunch and eat them. Green, light green, yellow, brown I didn\u2019t pay much attention.
Then one day I was driving to my awesome college job at Gap kids, and I took a bite of my greenish banana.
I realized it wasn\u2019t good.
As a matter of fact every time I ate a greenish banana I didn\u2019t really like it.
Suddenly I realized I didn\u2019t like green bananas. And I didn\u2019t have to eat any banana I didn\u2019t like.
I was a legit grown up I could pick the color of bananas I would eat.
I rolled down my window and SPIT OUT the gross banana in my mouth and to this day I\u2019ve never eaten a banana with a grace of green.
Life is too short for green bananas.
This life lesson has served me well in a million areas of my life.
With friendships, jobs, picking out jeans and how I spend my time on a Saturday. The applications are endless.
Tonight I share this lesson with you.
You don\u2019t have to eat green bananas either my friends.
Only eat bananas you really enjoy.
Pass it on.
