Happiness is my only function. And when I’m not feeling joy and peace, I know something has gone wrong—and that’s my opportunity to choose happiness again.— Terry Ludwig

Episode Summary

In this episode of Project Candor, Jeanne Andersen sits down with life coach and transformational mentor Terry Ludwig for a powerful conversation about resilience, reinvention, and the courage to rewrite your story. Terry shares how she unlearned the belief that life is meant to be a struggle and discovered that our thoughts shape our reality. From declaring independence at 16 to surviving abuse, building a six-figure design firm as a single mother, and ultimately stepping into her calling as a healer and coach, Terry’s journey is one of radical responsibility and deep inner work.

Together, they explore forgiveness, fear versus love, childhood wounds, and the daily choice to move toward gratitude instead of pain. The episode closes with a revealing round of Two Truths and a Lie—but the real truth woven throughout is this: happiness isn’t something we chase; it’s something we choose.
