Happy Thanksgiving! Lauren Blanchard Zalewski of Gratitude Addict is back for another great conversation about gratitude. We talk about the benefits of gratitude beyond one day of the year and how helpful this practice can be when we're dealing with chronic pain. Lauren created an amazing Facebook group – Attitude of Gratitude with Chronic Pain and is leading the way for daily gratitude practices. Her new book, 5-Minute Gratitude Journal for Teen Boys: Prompts for Wisdom, Courage, and Confidence contains guided goal setting, empowering exercises, and words of wisdom for each day will be out on Nov 30, 2021.

In this episode, I share my personal story of how I've been silently battling endometriosis for over 30 years. My good friend Cathy Skelcher interviewed me. Cathy is the founder of Inner Revolution Coaching & Yoga with over 22 years of experience. We have an open and difficult conversation about what it's like to suffer with endometriosis, how the disease is poorly understood with no known cause or cure at this time. 1 in 10 women are suffering with endo which means someone you know is quietly in pain. Our conversation is candid, please use earbuds if little ones are around.

How many of us have used the Law of Attraction to attract what we desire in our lives? I was first introduced to this concept in Michael Losier's best-selling book Law of Attraction: The Science of Attracting More of What You Want and Less of What You Don't. He originally self-published this book, and today it's sold over 3.2 million copies and translated into 37 languages! Michael has been interviewed by Oprah herself four times and went on to enjoy a year-long run hosting his own radio show on Oprah & Friends™ Radio. Our conversation dives deep into the book publishing journey and how he's continued to serve his global community for close to two decades. You can find him on Saturdays at 9 am PST hosing the Emotion Code Bro Show.
