33 | How You Can Prioritize Gratitude as a SAHM This Thanksgiving


Listen Later

Are you struggling to find anything to be thankful for this Thanksgiving?

Do you listen to all the gratitude lists from others and just think, "Yeah, I'm not feeling it…"

Are you pasting on a smile, wishing the holidays were over already?

If so, you’re in the right place. 

Hi, I’m Cheryl - Wife, girl mom, and Jesus follower. I learned the not-so-secret ways to become the mom my girls needed by prioritizing Jesus back into life, rejecting mom guilt, and discovering what self-esteem really is. If you’re ready to build faith while washing dishes, rediscover your identity and love yourself like your babies do - grab your earbuds and lock the bathroom door for a minute alone, it’s Time for Mom.

In this episode, I’m sharing 7 things that I use to find gratitude and thankfulness in hard times so you can cut a few years off your journey towards choosing gratitude. 

  • Remind yourself of what God has done.

  • Remind yourself of the goodness of God.

  • Listen to things that encourage you: The Bible, music, even podcasts.

  • Gratitude is a choice. It's not effortless.

  • Pray for God to reveal things you can be thankful for.

  • Grief must be allowed.

  • Remember: God is with you. You aren't in this alone. If you feel like it, please reach out to me on the podcast Facebook group or email me through the link in the newsletter.
