In today's episode, I share a compelling practice of self-love and self-recognition; writing a letter of gratitude to yourself. Writing this letter to yourself is a radical opportunity to pause and appreciate who you are and where you've been while providing inspiration for your next stage of growth. Gratitude is a huge part of the School of Excellence Framework and as a director or owner, it is important that you realize that it is very different from gratitude for others. When we show ourselves gratitude, we give ourselves permission to reflect on and accept everything that we've been through.

 

In a nutshell, I talk about:

• Why it is important to show gratitude to yourself, for things that you have done or have to do
• Leaning into your emotions, fully expressing them to get space for other beautiful emotions
• The 6 incredible steps on how to write a gratitude letter to your former self

        …and so much more!
