Right before Thanksgiving, in the middle of progress reports, last-minute meetings, and all the pumpkin spice in the world, it can be easy to miss the small moments that actually fuel us.
This episode is a gentle pause.
A breath.
A circle of gratitude created for you.
I asked counselors in my Facebook groups what they are most grateful for, and their answers were pure joy, connection, and heart. Today I am sharing their stories, along with a few of my own, as a reminder that even in the chaos, the work you do every day truly matters.
✨ What You Will Hear in This Episode:“Emotional safety is such a quiet form of love, and when kids choose to show up in your space, that is gratitude in motion.”
💛 Encouragement for the WeekTake a moment today to name one thing you are grateful for in your work, with no posting or documenting, just a quiet acknowledgment of a meaningful moment.
You are the safe space.
You are the trusted adult.
You are the calm in the storm.
And that is something to be profoundly grateful for.
Happy Thanksgiving, counselor friends. I appreciate you more than you know. 💛
