This episode explores a quieter, harder kind of gratitude — the way thankfulness can coexist with loss, pain, and unresolved feelings. Using Ross Gay's Catalog of Unabashed Gratitude as a touchstone, the host invites listeners to stay with difficult emotions rather than rushing to fix them.

You're encouraged to notice one small real thing that mattered, to sit with it, and to share the episode with someone who might need this gentle reminder.
