Podcasts about Gratitude

www.patreon.com/dopeypodcastDave opens the Tuesday teaser alone in his house, loving the rare quiet and recording next to Susan the snake's terrarium. He complains about his fancy Rogan-style mic breaking, says he hates stands, and talks about launching “fake meditation shit” because he likes the sound of his own voice.He previews this week's Patreon episode: him and Doug in the Honda Pilot “by the bay,” where Dave had a full sneezing meltdown and wound up blowing his nose into his sock for the entire show because he had no tissues.Dave announces a possible new Dopey schedule:Monday: standalone interviewTuesday: teaserWednesday: Secret DopeyThursday: archived interviews or mailbagFriday: DopeyHe announces a Patreon Zoom at 9pm.He then reads an email from a listener named Dave, who realized his sponsor is the guy who made the Firecracker rap for DopeyCon. Dave plays the Firecracker rap and riffs on how good it is, how white recovery rap can be weird, and how much he loves the shout-out to Artie Lange and Chris.The emailer says he's 18 months sober and thanks Dave. Dave tells him to send more rap.Then the teaser cuts to Dave and Doug in the Honda Pilot, roasting each other. Doug calls Dave a homeless person for blowing his nose in a sock. They argue about Rich Roll, Doug's critiques of Dave's interviews, Doug's surgery, Dave's voice, meditation, and a guy on Soft White Underbelly. Doug claims Dave was needy and weak on his second Rich Roll appearance. Dave pushes back.All that and not much more on the all new patreon teaser for the good old dopey show.

Wow, I can't believe Kaleb and I have officially been married for TWO years! In this episode, we're spilling ALL the tea – the highs, the lows, and the hilarious little quirks of doing life together. We're getting real about the silly fights (yes, the manly hands moment made a comeback), things we've learned, and how our marriage has grown since saying “I do.” We also talk about:

I'm doing something new today and I have made an episode for the whole family. So you don't have to listen to this in your earbuds. You can push "play" while you're riding in the car and listen because this is all about thanksgiving and how we can practice gratitude.   Melody Beattie said:            "Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life." That is what we're talking about today. Resources from this episode: Dwell Bible App Discount Rhythms Reset  Send Nancy an audio message! Join my email list!  Visit my Amazon Cornerstore!

In their third session, Zach shifts focus from reparenting the self to rebuilding trust, compassion, and connection in real time. The couple begins by reflecting on the chaos of parenting two neurodivergent children and how exhaustion, overwhelm, and constant caregiving have reshaped their marriage. The wife shares that while parenting has deep purpose and spiritual meaning, it also leaves her feeling “brought to her knees.” The husband expresses gratitude for their new home in Lisbon and admiration for her recent self-care efforts—but his words about “having more respect” land in a complicated way. What unfolds next is a layered conversation about respect versus compassion—how differently each experiences and defines those words, and how love can be both abundant and still “not land.” The wife reveals her fear that her “bucket has a hole”—that trauma keeps love from staying inside. The husband wrestles with the feeling of being both compassionate and exhausted. Zach guides them toward clarity: that differences in meaning, experience, and emotional wiring don't mean disconnection—they're invitations to co-create a shared vocabulary of care. By the end, the trio lands on a metaphor for healing: building an inner “city with a well and garden”. A healthy place inside the self where gratitude, curiosity, and compassion can grow. From there, they imagine a next step; ten intentional days of small, mutual choices to create a shared sense of safety and hope. Key Takeaways Parenting exposes purpose and pressure – Raising neurodivergent kids has deepened their sense of mission but also stretched their capacity for joy. Respect and compassion can get tangled – The husband's expression of regained respect triggers the wife's old shame wounds, revealing how love languages can misfire even when intentions are good. Compassion must land – It's not about whether compassion exists, but whether it's experienced and felt. Trauma leaves “holes in the bucket” – The wife describes how past pain can make love hard to hold, even when it's generously offered. Shame cycles need space – Zach helps her imagine creating a small pause between shame and reaction—a mindful sliver that grows with practice. Safety over sameness – Each partner's version of health looks different, but the shared goal is to meet in a “healthy place,” not to drag the other toward one definition. Gratitude and agency go together – The husband learns that his peace can't depend on her choices; it must come from cultivating gratitude within himself. Ten-day goals – They agree to take small, concrete steps—ten days at a time—to make life together a little “more good” and a little “less bad.” Learn more about your ad choices.

Gratitude is good, but even gratitude can be corrupted. In this episode, John explores how self-centered spirituality, narcissism, and performative “thankfulness” distort the gift God intends for us. Drawing from Cornelius Plantinga, Robert Emmons, Barbara Ehrenreich, and the parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector, this teaching offers a deeper, more honest vision of what gratitude truly is.If you want to grow in humility, authenticity, and God-centered thanksgiving, this episode is for you.

Discover the power of gratitude in real life, not the filtered version we wish for. In this talk, Rev. Lee Wolak uncovers how releasing fixation, accepting what is, and shifting perspective can transform your spiritual path.

Sharing stories of God’s goodness isn’t bragging—it’s obedience. Psalm 9:1 calls us to give thanks with our whole hearts and boldly speak about the wonderful things God has done. In a world filled with criticism, division, and constant noise, our testimonies become powerful reminders that God is still active, still providing, and still working in the lives of His people. Gratitude grows when we speak it out loud, and joy follows when we point everything back to Him. Highlights Testimonies strengthen faith—ours and the faith of those who hear them (Psalm 9:1). Sharing God’s goodness publicly isn’t boasting when the glory goes to Him. Gratitude helps guard our hearts against negativity, comparison, and discouragement. A thankful posture begins with honest self-reflection and, when needed, confession. Blessings—big or small—become fuel for worship when we acknowledge God as their source. Speaking about God’s deeds invites both believers and non-believers to notice His presence. Shifting our mindset from complaint to praise reshapes our spiritual outlook and our witness.

Check out our Holiday Gift Guide—from beautifully illustrated Bibles and devotionals to novels, greeting cards, and picture books, there’s something for everyone on your list.

Full Transcript Below: Tell of God’s Wonderful DeedsBy: Michelle Lazurek Bible Reading:“I will give thanks to you, Lord, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonderful deeds.” — Psalm 9:1 A few months ago, I arranged a meeting with a publisher for two of my clients. Within an hour, we secured two book contracts for them. We were thrilled! Before the publisher ended the call, I asked if she could stay on for a few more minutes. I also had a book I wanted to pitch to them, and by God's grace, I had secured a contract for myself! I wanted to share God’s goodness, so I posted on social media. I couldn’t wait to share about his goodness at that moment. I aimed for it to be a testimony to others struggling to get a contract, letting them know that even though this book had been sitting on my laptop for years, God had finally found a place for it. Although some people later told me that I was bragging about my accomplishments, I truly took it as an opportunity to acknowledge God's goodness. We are called to share what God has done in our lives. In this chaotic world we live in, it's easy to hear criticism on social media and in various parts of our lives. What we need more of are testimonies of how God is moving in and through us. The above verse reminds us that we are to tell of God's wondrous deeds. This is an excellent way for us to keep an attitude of gratitude, especially as we approach the holidays. With all the political posts and division plaguing our country, we need to be people who tell of God's good deeds, not the horrible things we wish we could fix. Take a moment and analyze your life. Are you someone who often tells of God's wondrous deeds? Does this help you keep an attitude of gratitude? Do you find yourself complaining more than rejoicing? Although keeping a thankful attitude can be difficult, it is important to maintain it each day. It may be as simple as counting your blessings, even the ones you take for granted. Other times, it might involve making a grand gesture for someone as an act of kindness to show them Christ’s love in tangible ways. Regardless of the way you choose, tell of God's wondrous deeds. Brag on the Lord. Give him credit for everything in your life. Don't let anything get in the way of you celebrating all that God has done. Have you found that difficult? Analyze your heart. Do you have unconfessed sin or another area of your life that might be hindering you from truly rejoicing in the Lord? Go to Him and confess your sin. Afterwards, take a few moments to get out a blank journal and start writing down your blessings. This will transform your attitude as quickly as possible. Additionally, if you find yourself taking credit for things happening in your life instead of giving credit to God, it's likely your attitude is wrong. Repent of this behavior. Know that God is in control of all things in your life. Everything good you have in your life comes from him. The quicker you can adopt this perspective, the quicker you can change your attitude and pivot it to giving God all the glory he deserves. Vow to tell people of all the wondrous deeds he has done. Take a week and post on social media the great things God has done. Be in tune with the spirit and be on the lookout for all the ways God is working in your life. Be sure to tell others, both through social media and in person, all the things God has done. Do this with believers and non-believers, and you may find that non-believers are attracted to your example. As Christians, we are known more for what we are against rather than what we are for. Let us change our perspective so that people forget about us and always remember the Lord. Father, let us be people who tell of your wondrous deeds. Let us find various ways to celebrate all the things that you are doing. Let us give you all the praise and glory you deserve in multiple ways every day. Amen.

What to listen for:“[Being a part of] this podcast terrified me. Putting myself out there was so vulnerable, and I felt like it was such a big risk for you guys, as well. I'm so thankful. I'm glad you made me, but I'm also going to say I'm glad that I did it because in the end, I had the final say in buying the microphone and the headset.”After 151 episodes, Crystal Wing says goodbye (or rather, seeya later) to the K9 Detection Collaborative family, and lets us know the exciting things she has in store in the very near future! In her final episode on the pod, Crystal, along with co-hosts Robin Greubel and Stacy Wing, reflect on growth, gratitude, and the courage required to embrace terrifying change.Crystal shares how the podcast stretched her beyond comfort, teaching her that her voice didn't need to be perfect to be powerful. She thanks the community of listeners, guests, and especially her co-hosts for building confidence she never knew she possessed.It also helps that the ADHD brain that once made her curiosity feel like a burden found a home, and a tribe, on the pod!The Dames of Detection also talk about doing scary things as a catalyst for growth. Stacy offers an inspirational quote she borrowed: "Confidence doesn't come from preparation, it comes from survival." Which basically means that moving forward before feeling ready is precisely what builds capability!Crystal also announces her new project: a short-form podcast tentatively titled "What's On Top.”She thanks Stacy for teaching her about odor behavior and vehicles, and Robin for seeing potential she hadn't recognized in herself. The lily pad metaphor comes to mind, where teachers provide stepping stones that students eventually leap from, not destinations where they remain forever.Crystal signs off with the reminder that, if something terrifies you while simultaneously tugging at your purpose, that fear signals you're on the right path! Key Topics:Crystal Announces Her Departure After 151 Episodes (01:30)Introducing "What's On Top": Crystal's New Solo Podcast (08:09)"Do It Nervous, Do It Anyway" (14:51)Gratitude for Specific Lessons and Opportunities (17:45)The Lily-Pad Metaphor: Teachers as Stepping Stones (19:00)Key Takeaways (29:12)Not an Ending, Just a New Chapter (32:41) Resources:Keep up with Crystal's Goings On!We want to hear from you:Check out the K9 Detection Collaborative FB page and comment on the episode post!K9Sensus Detection Dog Trainer AcademyK9Sensus Foundation can be found on Facebook and Instagram.

No toxic positivity here. We're reframing aging without letting it steal the headline and showing how small, bold actions add up to big, sustainable change.We explore how gratitude moves from warm feeling to hard science: lowering cortisol, improving sleep quality, boosting immune function, and increasing motivation for healthy habits.

From walking buddies to online accountability, we highlight the people who keep us moving and the quiet influence you have when you show up.

We close with simple, actionable steps you can take today to build momentum: stretch, hydrate, walk, or text someone who's been part of your wellness journey and say thank you.If this conversation sparks a shift, even a small one, hit follow, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review so more midlifers can find their strength.

The turkey might still be thawing, the pies may or may not be homemade, and your kids might not be feeling especially thankful—but this Thanksgiving, the Raising Godly Girls Podcast invites you to look beyond the checklist and rediscover the heart of gratitude.  Join Rachael Culpepper, Executive Director of American Heritage Girls, and Melissa Bearden for a thoughtful and faith-filled conversation about what it means to raise daughters who choose gratitude even when it doesn't come naturally. With honest reflections, Biblical insight, and a few laughs along the way, Rachael and Melissa unpack how gratitude is not just a seasonal feeling—it's a spiritual discipline rooted in nearness to God.  Drawing from James 4:8 and Luke 14, they remind moms that gratitude grows when we draw near to the Lord and accept His invitation to the table of thanksgiving. From small car-ride conversations to setting the Thanksgiving table together, you'll learn simple, tangible ways to help your daughter practice gratitude that lasts longer than the leftovers.  Plus, hear from AHG Founder & Executive Director Emeritus Patti Garibay in a special Raising Godly Girls Minute—a timely reminder to turn expectations into invitations, and holiday stress into holy celebration.  Whether you're hosting family or sneaking an extra slice of pie in peace, this episode will encourage you to keep "the first things first" and model what it means to live thankful, even when you don't feel like it.    Three Things to Remember:  Gratitude is a choice, not a feeling. Choosing thankfulness (even in difficult seasons!) draws your heart closer to God.  Extend intentional invitations. Invite your daughter into moments of gratitude through small acts of connection and love.  Model resilient thanksgiving. Let your own steady gratitude remind her that joy isn't dependent on circumstances, but on Christ's unchanging goodness.    Scripture Referenced in This Episode:  James 4:8 – "Come near to God and He will come near to you."  Luke 14:15–24 – The Parable of the Great Banquet: God's open invitation to come and celebrate at His table.  1 Thessalonians 5:18 – "Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus."  Psalm 100:4 – "Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise."    Explore more resources to raise girls rooted in Christ at raisinggodlygirls.com.  To find or start an American Heritage Girls Troop in your area, visit americanheritagegirls.org.

Hello IMPACT SHOW passengers, this is your captain speaking —Todd Durkin, coming to you LIVE from 35,000 feet altitude somewhere between San Diego and Whitefish, Montana!  This one's different as I could not contain my excitement enroute to Montana for our annual Mountain Retreat. I just HAD to hit record because my mind was in major FLOW mode and the lessons were downloading!  This episode is all about MINDSET — how to stay calm in chaos, find clarity in the climb, and keep your faith strong even when life gets turbulent. Because just like flying, life doesn't always give you smooth air. But you can always control your response, your attitude, and your altitude.  Here's What You'll Learn in Episode 453: 1. You Can't Control the Turbulence — But You CAN Control Your Response. Life's gonna shake you. Business dips, plans get flipped, curveballs come outta nowhere. But high performers? They don't panic — we breathe, we stay calm, and we trust our training. I share exactly what happened on my flight this past week and how to navigate life's storms with poise, peace, and purpose. 2. High Altitude = High Awareness. When you rise above the weeds, you see the big picture. Up here, the clarity is unreal. I talk about how to "get above the noise" so you can see your mission, your purpose, and your life from a higher perspective — because clarity doesn't come in chaos; it comes in stillness. And you can't see the vision when you're stuck on the runway. 3. Pre-Flight Rituals = Peak Performance Habits. Every pilot has a pre-flight checklist — and you need one too. I walk you through my own daily ritual: movement, gratitude, journaling, & prayer. These habits anchor me, fuel me, and set the tone for the day. Because I'm telling you — when you win the morning…you win the day; and when you win the day(s)…you ultimately win the weeks, months, quarters, and year(s). 4. Your Final Destination Is Determined by Your Dreams. We all need more "blue-sky" time. We all need more "white-space" in our daily rituals. It's powerful to have some built-in, regular time to write, think, dream, and ultimately do. That's why I'm also firing off 10 powerful questions to get you dreaming again — your Big 5 for Life, your Big 5 for 2026, and what God is whispering in this season. Don't drift. Don't settle. And now is a GREAT time of the year to start 'dreaming.' 5. Your Attitude Determines Your Altitude. You cannot fly high if you're surrounded by people who live low. Protect your energy. Fuel your mind with gratitude and growth. Surround yourself with people who elevate, inspire, and challenge you. Because the higher you go, the thinner the air — and the fewer the distractions. Key Takeaways: Mindset determines your mission. You can't control the turbulence, but you can control your response. Calm is a superpower. Gratitude is rocket fuel. Dream boldly. Live purposefully. Fly with faith. The world needs your energy, faith, and fire — at full altitude. My friends — life's going to have turbulence. We are going to have seasons where life is "bumpy" to say the least. It's important during those times to stay calm; Stay grateful; Stay focused; and stay tapped-in. Keep your seatbelt fastened, your faith strong, and your mindset sky-high. It's time for take-off…it's time for IGNITION!

Today, John explores the surprising timing of gratitude. When does gratitude matter the most? When something good happens? When life goes right? Scripture gives a very different answer.Drawing from Paul's words in Philippians 4 and 1 Thessalonians 5—and powerful reflections from Karl Barth, Kate Bowler, and the Psalms—John shows why the key moment for gratitude is right now, no matter your circumstances. Not because everything is good, but because God is God in this moment.You'll hear stories of protest, lament, trust, and hope… and you'll be invited into a brief practice of giving thanks for the small, often overlooked blessings of ordinary life. This one will encourage you and steady your soul. Welcome to Become New.

In this powerful episode, men's mental health expert, Shayden Bertagnolli, explores the profound impact of gratitude on men's mental health.

In week 3 of our Gratitude series Pastor Kenny shares a message on restoring gratitude when it has been lost or taken for granted. Using the story of the prodigal son he reminds us that returning to God brings clarity, thankfulness, and a renewed heart.

Text your thoughts and questions!Practicing genuine gratitude is often overlooked because it's such a familiar term that it's become a bit of a throwaway idea, popping up on every self-care list and journal prompt. It's also become the unofficial theme for November, with quotes, signs, and all manner of reminders to “be grateful” without understanding the context. But beneath all of the hype is a truly transformational practice. This week, episode 288 of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast is about how practicing gratitude can make you happy. In this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I'm cutting through the “toxic positivity” and self-help hype to reveal the link between practicing gratitude and finding happiness, and giving you actionable steps to take right now to rewire your brain for a more positive outlook. I cover the following topics:The science behind your gratitude practice, including the Reticular Activating System (RAS) and neuroplasticity, that work together to train your brain to seek out the good. Clarifying what gratitude is (and what it's not), especially in contrast to mindset trends like toxic positivity. Three effective methods to deepen your appreciation beyond simple gratitude lists. Additional resources for continued learning and habit building include the Positively Grateful Series Bundle. Stop waiting for happiness to find you and start cultivating it today.

The Sermon from The Oaks Church weekly gathering.

You know those seasons when you know you should be grateful, but you can't quite feel it?  Like when life feels heavy, when the house is loud, and your heart just can't catch its breath? In today's episode, I talk about why gratitude can feel so hard, especially when you're overwhelmed, when blessings don't look the way we expected, or when fear and unworthiness sneak in.  Listen, there's nothing wrong with you. You just don't know how to release the tension or recognize God's presence in the middle of the mess.  That's okay, most people don't know how to do that either.  Which is why I am re-releasing this most valuable podcast episode to help you see how even the hardest moments can become invitations to deeper trust with our Lord, especially right before the holidays.  Gratitude isn't about pretending everything's okay, it's about finding peace and hope right where God has permitted you to be. I always say, gratitude is the gateway to hope. Grab your earbuds and I'll explain how that works in: MVP When Gratitude Feels Hard.  

Series: GratefulWeek 1 Title: I Am GratefulScripture: Philippians 4:4–7; Philippians 2:28; Philippians 4:11–13Big Idea:Gratitude is what makes peace possible.I. The Context of GratitudePaul writes Philippians not from comfort but from a Roman prison cell.He's chained to uncertainty yet overflowing with joy, peace, and thanksgiving.Gratitude isn't tied to circumstances—it's anchored in the presence of God.Even here, I'm grateful.II. Fix Your Focus“Rejoice in the Lord always” — a command, not a suggestion.Joy is not denial—it's direction. You choose where to aim your attention.Where your attention goes, your emotions follow.When anxiety rises, fix your focus on God's presence, not your problems.Philippians 2:28 shows that Paul himself experienced anxiety—so it's not sin, it's human.“You can't stop anxious thoughts from showing up, but you can decide where they go.”III. Gratitude Changes Our PhysiologyPhilippians 4:5 — “Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near.”Gentleness = calm presence born from gratitude.Gratitude grounds us in God's nearness rather than our fear.The practice of presence transforms anxiety into awareness of peace.IV. Gratitude is the Pathway to PeaceThanksgiving is in the prayer, not just after the answer.Gratitude invites supernatural peace that surpasses understanding.“The peace of God will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.”Peace doesn't mean everything makes sense; it means your heart is guarded in the chaos.Testimonies: marriages saved, friendships restored, hope renewed—all through gratitude.V. Learning the PracticeGratitude is not fake optimism—it's honest faith.“God, I hate the hard times. But I'm grateful You're still with me in them.”Philippians 4:11–13 — Paul learned contentment in every season.We don't stumble into gratitude; we practice it until it shapes us.Fix your focus. Change your physiology. Let peace guard your heart.

In Built to Last, the final message in the Nehemiah series, we're reminded that God's work in us and through us is far from finished. Just as Nehemiah led God's people to dedicate the wall with gratitude, worship, and generosity, we are called to do the same, thanking God for what He's done, trusting Him with what's ahead, and investing in what truly lasts. Gratitude fuels our faith, generosity keeps us aligned with God's mission, and together we build not just walls, but lives that reflect Jesus and reach the world for Him.

Leigh Ann and returning guest Carol Look discuss the transformative power of gratitude and EFT tapping, exploring how these practices can enhance emotional well-being. They delve into the skepticism surrounding gratitude, the importance of embodying it rather than merely intellectualizing it, and the dangers of toxic positivity. The conversation highlights the significance of acknowledging pain before embracing gratitude, understanding self-sabotage in happiness, and the dysregulation that can accompany joy. They emphasize the need for daily practices to build resilience and navigate emotional triggers, ultimately advocating for a compassionate approach to personal growth and emotional health.Product Discount Codes + Links2025 Holistic Holiday Gift Guide: HereHerbal Face Food: Website (Discount Code: LAL30)The Fullest: Website (discount code: LEIGH15)Healing Alchemy Membership: Learn MoreEpisode LinksYes, Thank You PortalCarol's New Book: Yes, Thank YouGuest InfoCarol Look - WebsiteCarol Look - InstagramRelated EpisodesPodcast Ep. 178: Sheri Salata - Creating a Life of Joy and AuthenticityPodcast Ep. 168: Jonny Miller - Finding Balance: The Art of Emotional and Nervous System RegulationPodcast Ep. 155: Aline LaPierre - Connecting Mind, Body, and Emotion with NeuroAffective TouchWork w/Leigh AnnLearn: What is EVOX Therapy?Book: Schedule a Session or FREE Discovery CallMembership: What is The Healing Alchemy MembershipConnect w/Me & Learn MoreWebsiteInstagramTiktokYoutube

Gratitude // Week 3 // Gratitude And Our OutcomesPastors JF and Ashley Wilkerson1 Samuel 25:1-3 NIV1 Now Samuel died, and all Israel assembled and mourned for him; and they buried him at his home in Ramah. Then David moved down into the Desert of Paran. 2 A certain man in Maon, who had property there at Carmel, was very wealthy. He had a thousand goats and three thousand sheep, which he was shearing in Carmel. 3 His name was Nabal and his wife's name was Abigail. She was an intelligent and beautiful woman, but her husband was surly and mean in his dealings—he was a Calebite.1. Gratitude is not a feeling...gratitude is a choice.1 Samuel 25:4-11 NIV4 While David was in the wilderness, he heard that Nabal was shearing sheep. 5 So he sent ten young men and said to them, “Go up to Nabal at Carmel and greet him in my name. 6 Say to him: ‘Long life to you! Good health to you and your household! And good health to all that is yours! 7 “‘Now I hear that it is sheep-shearing time. When your shepherds were with us, we did not mistreat them, and the whole time they were at Carmel nothing of theirs was missing. 8 Ask your own servants and they will tell you. Therefore be favorable toward my men, since we come at a festive time. Please give your servants and your son David whatever you can find for them.'” 9 When David's men arrived, they gave Nabal this message in David's name. Then they waited. 10 Nabal answered David's servants, “Who is this David? Who is this son of Jesse? Many servants are breaking away from their masters these days. 11 Why should I take my bread and water, and the meat I have slaughtered for my shearers, and give it to men coming from who knows where?”1. Gratitude is not a feeling...gratitude is a choice.2. Gratitude to God results in generosity to others.2 Corinthians 9:11-12 NIV11 You will be enriched in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God. 12 This service that you perform is not only supplying the needs of the Lord's people but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God.Matthew 25:34-40 NIV 34 “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.' 37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?' 40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.'1. Gratitude is not a feeling...gratitude is a choice.2. Gratitude to God results in generosity to others.3. Gratitude is more about our obedience than our understanding.1 Samuel 25:14-19 NIV14 One of the servants told Abigail, Nabal's wife, “David sent messengers from the wilderness to give our master his greetings, but he hurled insults at them. 15 Yet these men were very good to us. They did not mistreat us, and the whole time we were out in the fields near them nothing was missing. 16 Night and day they were a wall around us the whole time we were herding our sheep near them. 17 Now think it over and see what you can do, because disaster is hanging over our master and his whole household. He is such a wicked man that no one can talk to him.” 18 Abigail acted quickly. She took two hundred loaves of bread, two skins of wine, five dressed sheep, five seahs of roasted grain, a hundred cakes of raisins and two hundred cakes of pressed figs, and loaded them on donkeys. 19 Then she told her servants, “Go on ahead; I'll follow you.” But she did not tell her husband Nabal.1 Samuel 25:23-27 NIV1. Gratitude is not a feeling... Gratitude is a choice.2. Gratitude to God should always result in generosity to others.3. Gratitude is more about our obedience than our understanding.

Let's be real: sometimes, being told to “just be grateful” when things are hard feels… gross. We get it. Gratitude can be helpful, but not when it's used to slap a smiley face sticker over real pain.In this episode, Allie and Ellen talk about what taking a descriptive approach to gratitude looks like. It's the kind that helps you carry the hard stuff, not erase it. Allie shares what she's learned while recovering from a serious fall (and yes, her therapist will be proud of this one), and Ellen dives into why “good vibes only” doesn't help us or our clients.Whether you're a pet parent knee-deep in the messy middle or a pro helping others through it, this episode is your reminder that you can say “this sucks”… and still find the tiny glimmers along the way.TLDL (too long, didn't listen):1️⃣ Gratitude isn't pretending it's all fine – You can acknowledge hardship and find small things to appreciate; both can be true.2️⃣ Little glimmers matter – Whether it's a client breakthrough, a funny pet moment, or a small win, collecting and revisiting these moments helps you stay grounded when things get tough.3️⃣ Build your support system – Surround yourself with people who help you see the light when you're ready and know when to just sit with you in the dark.For the full episode show notes, including the resources mentioned in this episode, go here.More from Pet HarmonyPet Parents: enrichment ideas and practical behavior tips
