About This Episode

Gratitude is at the heart of everything Chris Schembra does. As an author, speaker, and founder, he believes that being grateful is a key ingredient to living a fulfilling life and overcoming the loneliness and disconnection we may face. In this episode, he shares his personal and professional bold journey from accepting a 15-year memory loss to founding the 7:47 Gratitude Experience, a framework at the heart of his company and his community-building dinners. Chris talks about the continuum of boldness, how it ranges from being a pioneer and starting something completely new to giving yourself permission to even think about doing something different or figure out what you really want. Being bold does not mean that you have to do more or be more. In fact, it often means doing less and focusing more on those select things. Chris also provides practical and actionable steps you can take to support your bold own life immediately. Tune in for an insightful episode on how the bold path is typically not the straight path, but it can be better and more impactful than we originally imagined.
