How can we live in a world where each day surprises us with more and more unexpected news.

In this podcast, she explains how she handles the ups and downs of life through the practice of gratitude.

If you want to be happy….help somebody else.

We live in a time where self help seems to be focused inwards. To treat yourself better.

But what if the secret to happiness might be an outward focus. Towards other people.

Research backs this up.

Studies show that spending money on yourself actually makes you less happy than spending money on others.

Happiness is counterintuitive.

No one knows this better than Jodi. Going through a rough patch in her life, she discovered the incredible power of giving in an unusual place - at the local waffle house.

Every now and then, we have experiences that shake us to the core. It acts as a lead domino that creates a chain reaction in our lives. And we come out the other end as a whole new person.

For Kris, this happened when her dear friend died of cancer. For her, it was a life-changing event. A wake up call. A reminder about the preciousness of life. Of how we need to make the most out of every moment we have on this planet.

She changed her career, her outlook and her perspective soon after. She adopted an attitude of gratitude and that made all the difference.
