Ever get tired of gratitude being framed as some forced holiday ritual or another “should” on your self-care to-do list? Yeah, Gretchen gets it — real gratitude often gets lost under the pressure to perform. In this Thanksgiving week episode, Gretchen breaks down exactly why gratitude isn’t just a sugary sentiment or an Instagram affirmation, but actual nourishment for a nervous system (and business) that’s stretched thin. She gets honest about her own history with gratitude feeling contrived, and shares grounded, science-backed practices that actually shift your baseline from survival mode to a place where your work feels like a privilege, not an obligation.

If you’re someone who finds gratitude tough when everything feels heavy — or worries that you’re “doing it wrong” — you’ll find real relief here. Tiny, regular practices aren’t just fluff; they literally retrain your brain, replenish your emotional reserves, and help you start seeing the small wins when life gets hard. This one’s full of practical shifts you can use right away, from a simple morning practice to a soothing visualization you’ll actually want to return to, especially when you need some grounding before a client or after a long day. Gratitude, reimagined — no performance required.
