Send us a text

What if a simple shift in perspective could turn your life from scarcity to abundance? Join us as we uncover the incredible power of gratitude with insights from our guests, Shelley Shepard and Heather Drake. Through spiritual texts, studies, and poetry, we explore how gratitude not only aligns us with promises of abundance but also enhances our mental and physical well-being. Our conversation is an invitation to embrace gratitude as a daily practice, nurturing deeper connections with ourselves, those around us, and the divine.

Gratitude connects us physically to the world and enriches our spiritual experiences, especially during significant times like Advent. We discuss how it bridges the gap between the food on our table and the people who make it possible. The concept of Dayenu from Jewish tradition reminds us to appreciate what we have, fostering a holistic outlook on life that acknowledges both joy and suffering. By adopting a thankful posture, we find renewal, recognizing the love behind every good thing, and choose to see the goodness around us despite challenges.

In a world fraught with adversity, finding gratitude can be transformative. We share a poignant story of a friend who honors gratitude through creating natural altars, proving that it transcends words, especially in moments of pain and trauma. The resilience of the human spirit shines through as we confront societal and environmental challenges, finding moments of appreciation amidst adversity. Supported by studies on its positive effects on longevity, gratitude is highlighted as an essential practice for embracing life’s complexities, offering hope and healing within a supportive community.
