Ep. 75 3 Ways to Practice Gratitude Without Pretending Everything Is Fine


Listen Later

Hey friend,


Have you ever tried to be grateful… while your life feels like a full-blown dumpster fire?


Your hormones are off.

Your energy is trash.

Your relationships feel strained.

Your weight hasn’t budged in months.


And someone says, “Just be thankful!”

… and you want to throw a pumpkin-spice-scented candle at their head.


In this week’s episode, we’re getting real about something you can control—even when everything around you feels wildly out of control:


👉 How to practice gratitude in the middle of crappy circumstances.


And I’m breaking down what most women have never been taught:


Your thoughts—not your circumstances—create your feelings.


🎧 Listen to the full episode:

How to Stay Thankful (Even When Life Feels Like a Dumpster Fire)


Inside the episode, I break it all down:


  • Why forcing gratitude doesn’t work (and what actually does)
  • How your brain is creating extra suffering without you realizing it
  • How the Thought Model can shift your emotional state—on purpose
  • Why acceptance is the doorway to emotional safety and hormone balance
  • How to stay anchored in hope, even when nothing is changing fast enough


You’ll learn how to stop pretending everything is fine…

and instead build real resilience, real gratitude, and real emotional grounding—even in the mess.


Your body isn’t failing you.

Your life isn’t off track.

And gratitude isn’t about bypassing your struggles.

It’s about learning to support yourself through them.


Let’s learn how to do that together.


In health,

Tracy Erin
