The season of gratitude is upon us, but so often I find that conversations about gratitude can be surface-level and abstract. We know that gratitude can be a powerful tool, but how is it supposed to actually look in our lives? This week, I am joined by Holly Bertone, Transformational Mindset Coach and the host of the Gratitude Builds Fortitude podcast, to hear her story of how gratitude transformed her life and learn how we can embody gratitude for our own transformations. 

In this episode, Holly and I talk about:

• The evidence that gratitude is more than a buzzword and can actually transform your life
• How gratitude helps break the suffer cycle
• The reason traditional gratitude practices tend to not really work
• Why a mindset of gratitude must be adopted to have a truly transformational impact
• The 4 gratitude personality types, and how each embraces gratitude differently
• How to engage your kids in gratitude
