How Do Grit, Gratitude and “Enoughness” Help Us Navigate Life Changing Loss. with Laura Bratton
In this Soul Sparks episode, host and guest cut through the fluff and talk real change. not the motivational poster version. When author, speaker and coach Laura Bratton lost her sight as a teenager, her first response was denial, shutdown and over functioning. not instant resilience. She breaks down how she moved from resisting reality to accepting a new normal, one class period at a time.
You will hear Laura unpack a practical framework for navigating any major transition. acknowledge the pain, shrink the timeline to “just today,” and choose your response even when anxiety does not disappear. Through honest stories about fear, resistance and identity, she shows how grit and gratitude work together. and why starting from “I am enough” is a strategic move, not a slogan. This is a grounded conversation for anyone sitting in the middle of change who needs something more useful than “stay positive."
About the Guest:
Laura Bratton is an author, speaker and coach who lost her eyesight at a young age and rebuilt her life in a sighted world. She now equips people to navigate change, grief and uncertainty with practical resilience, honest emotional processing and a mindset rooted in “enoughness.” Through her speaking, coaching and writing, Laura helps individuals move from resisting reality to working with it.
Key Takeaways :
Resilience is not pretending you are fine. it starts with acknowledging fear, grief and overwhelm instead of numbing or pushing through.
“Just get through today” is a powerful strategy. Laura broke big change into small, actionable goals like getting through each class period in high school.
You cannot always control circumstances. but you can control your mindset and response. that is where your real leverage lives.
Grit is the long term commitment to keep moving in the middle of fear and uncertainty. Gratitude is what keeps that effort from draining you.
Gratitude does not mean loving the hard thing. it means valuing the people, tools and supports that help you move through it.
Many people treat feeling and expressing emotions as weakness. Laura reframes honest tears and naming pain as a core resilience skill, not a failure.
Change does not make you “less than.” Starting from “I am enough” is the antidote to a culture that constantly tells you to do more before you are worthy.
