When Gratitude Lists Don’t Work...
If Your Gratitude List Feels Stale, You’re Not Alone
We’re often told that gratitude is the answer to everything — write a list, feel better, repeat.
But what happens when the list doesn’t change a thing?
In this solo episode, I share a personal moment that cracked open a new understanding for me about gratitude, appreciation, and the way our minds work when we’re overwhelmed. Instead of trying to force myself into feeling grateful, I stumbled into a different approach that helped me reconnect with the present moment in a much more honest, grounded way.
This isn’t an episode about toxic positivity or pretending everything’s fine.
It’s about noticing what’s real, finding small openings when you feel stuck, and learning how appreciation can quietly shift your emotional state in ways gratitude sometimes can’t.
You’ll hear:
✨ Why gratitude practices sometimes fall flat
✨ The surprising mindset shift that softened my “dark cloud” morning
✨ How appreciation can help you feel more present and less pressured
✨ A simple experiment you can try this week (no journaling required)
Whether you’re navigating holiday stress, feeling overwhelmed, or just craving a gentler way to support your own well-being, this episode offers a compassionate invitation to slow down and reconnect with what’s right in front of you.
Tune in, try the experiment, and see what opens.
🌼 Bloom like you mean it.
