As you read the headline you probably thought, “What…what the heck is intrinsic ratitude?” Right? Totally understandable and “ratitude” is my word for ‘radical gratitude' and intrinsic is what's deep inside of you and inherent to your BEing. When I say intrinsic to your being, I mean things like your ability to see, smell, taste, feel, and even your ability for your heart to beat and for you to breathe. Oprah has said, “Gratitude is the attitude” and many of us have heard that before but how many of us truly live that? How many of us embody it? How many of us understand that to the core of our being? When we do, it changes everything in us and around us, and when we live it in our daily lives they radically transform. In this episode, I talk about my journey to finding “intrinsic ratitude” in my life. And, I assure you, it has been a journey and all of us can do it if we commit just 5 minutes per day to having intrinsic ratitude. The great thing about ratitude is that it's literally an avenue to all that you want in life. It's free and yet most of us overlook it in our lives or we're tepidly and mildly grateful but we're not really embodying it. Let me ask you, do you take time during your days being immensely grateful for all that you have? I mean genuinely grateful, not perfunctory gratitude. I mean instead of just saying you're grateful because you're “supposed to” can you feel it in your bones, do you embody it. Do you savor your gratitude?You're not fully aware and alive until you can reach this place in yourself and all else is just being externally influenced. All else is not being fully present in life and not being fully immersed in life. When we start immersing in life we start infusing with life. And, when we infuse it, it's as if we are co habituating and living in communion with all of life…and that is power. In this episode I discuss:[7:04] How having gratitude will change your life[13:57] How once you are living in gratitude the Universe will start reflecting that back[18:55] Having gratitude for your breath, your heartbeat[23:15] An exercise in being grateful for your hands

LESSON 310In Fearlessness And Love I Spend Today.This day, my Father, would I spend with You, as You have chosen all my days should be. And what I will experience is not of time at all. The joy that comes to me is not of days nor hours, for it comes from Heaven to Your Son. This day will be Your sweet reminder to remember You, Your gracious calling to Your holy Son, the sign Your grace has come to me, and that it is Your Will I be set free today.We spend this day together, you and I. And all the world joins with us in our song of thankfulness and joy to Him Who gave salvation to us, and Who set us free. We are restored to peace and holiness. There is no room in us for fear today, for we have welcomed love into our hearts.- Jesus Christ in ACIM
This episode of Living Myth is about blindness, both individual and collective, and about the need for genuine visions and visionaries. Western culture, enthralled with the heroic and trapped in the limits of egotism, continues to turn a blind eye to the deeper sense of self and soul that alone can give a renewed sense of vision that can see beyond modern ideas that have come to threaten the future of the Earth. As long as we see through the lens of the heroic ego, we are likely to remain stuck in the territory of the same old willfulness and predictable blindness that cannot see ways to arrive at a deeper ground of understanding or a greater way to envision the living world. As the philosopher and humanist Erasmus said: "In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king." As the naturalist and poet Thoreau once stated: "I would give all the wealth of the world and all the deeds of all the heroes for one genuine vision." Genuine change requires that we open our inner eyes and see from a deeper place. For, the new shape of the world only comes into view and becomes conscious to us when a vision arises from the darkness around us and from the unseen depths of our own unconscious. It is this kind of transformative vision that breaks through the blindness that both binds and polarizes us. Something ancient and knowing is trying to catch up to us. And if our souls can stand deeply enough in the river of time, we can receive lost truths and wisdom from the deep well of memory as well as visions of the mostly unseen future. This combination of imaginative vision and deep memory has been the ongoing source of vitality and renewal that visionaries, seers and wounded healers throughout time have drawn upon to give us our true bearings even when the world itself seems to have lost its way.

In this episode of Longevity by Design, host Dr. Gil Blander sits down with Dr. Kerry Burnight, Gerontologist, Chief Gerontologist, New York Times best-selling author, and researcher. They explore what it truly means to age well, focusing less on resisting the passage of time and more on embracing vitality, curiosity, and joy throughout life's second half.Dr. Burnight explains why the common “decline” mindset around aging misses the full story. She shares research showing that meaningful growth, strong social connections, adaptability, and a sense of giving can shape both how long and how well we live. Dr. Burnight offers practical examples for building these habits, from maintaining friendships across generations to finding purpose in everyday acts.Throughout the conversation, Dr. Burnight urges listeners to rethink their beliefs about aging and to prepare for later life with intention. She shows that nurturing joy and purpose is just as important as physical health, and that everyone can take steps to build a more satisfying, resilient, and joyful future. Guest-at-a-Glance

Send us a textHave you ever been asked, "What is your calling?" In Episode 344, Dr. Arianna Molloy, author of "Healthy Calling: From Toxic Burnout to Sustainable Work," shares her research and helps us answer that question from a beautiful place of understanding and maturity.In this episode, we reframe calling as a living relationship with God, grounded in community and guided by humility, rest, and gratitude. I also unveil a new monthly format that helps us metabolize ideas, practice spiritual skills, and cultivate sustainable rhythms.Drawing from Dr. Arianna's work on healthy calling, we unpack a practical triad for a sustainable life of purpose: dialogue with God that starts our mornings, interaction that turns trust into action, and maintenance that gently course‑corrects when we drift. We name the third key player—community—and show how burnout ripples outward, while healthy rhythms multiply good in every direction. Along the way, we get honest about enforced rest, health scares, and the sobering gift of learning to move from rest rather than toward it.Humility anchors the conversation. Not self‑erasure, but clear awareness of strengths and weaknesses without fixation. Not hustle, but a lifestyle of learning and the courage to unplug. Gratitude then becomes humility in motion—remembering whose we are, who we are, and who is in charge.

Author and recovery advocate Dennis “D.J.” Quinn joins Rich to share a deeply human mentoring journey—from Big Brothers Big Sisters to a 13-year bond with “Mike,” a foster-adopted child whose life was later upended by severe mental illness. Dennis unpacks how “just showing up” can anchor a life, the hard hospital visits, the gratitude that birthed his memoir Stick Figures, and why mentorship and recovery work still matter today.Guest Bio: Dennis “D.J.” Quinn is an author, longtime mentor, and recovery advocate. Raised in Montana and a former Northwest Airlines flight attendant for 26 years, he has spent decades volunteering with Big Brothers Big Sisters and bringing recovery meetings into juvenile detention centers. He lives in Gig Harbor, Washington, and is the author of Stick Figures, a memoir honoring his 13-year mentoring journey with Mike. Main Topics: · Growing up in Montana: big family values, faith, and community· 26 years as a flight attendant: exposure to diverse lives and cultures· Big Brothers Big Sisters: first match, what real mentorship looks like· Meeting Mike: foster care, disability, progress—and the onset of mental illness· Hospitalizations and hard days: “ministry of presence” and boundaries· Writing Stick Figures: the calendar drawings that became a memoir· Inclusion in mentoring: local BBBS policy change and why it mattered· Recovery work with incarcerated teens: hope, honesty, and resources· Gratitude and “a lucky life”: what Mike taught Dennis (and us)· How to start mentoring or volunteering—time, commitment, payoff Resources mentioned: · Dennis “D.J.” Quinn — Website: djquinnauthor.com (signed copies available)· Dennis “D.J.” Quinn — Books: Stick Figures (also on Amazon)· Big Brothers Big Sisters (one-to-one youth mentoring)· Boys & Girls Club (youth development, group-based)· Places/notes referenced: Northwest Airlines, Disneyland, juvenile detention programming· Supporter: Full Circle Boards· Supporter: Sincerely Sawyer Photography Send us a texthttps://harfordcountyhealth.comSupport the showRate & Review on Apple Podcasts Follow the Conversations with Rich Bennett podcast on Social Media:Facebook – Conversations with Rich Bennett Facebook Group (Join the conversation) – Conversations with Rich Bennett podcast group | FacebookTwitter – Conversations with Rich Bennett Instagram – @conversationswithrichbennettTikTok – CWRB (@conversationsrichbennett) | TikTok Sponsors, Affiliates, and ways we pay the bills:Hosted on BuzzsproutSquadCast Subscribe by Email
Care to Change Counseling - Practical Solutions for Positive Change
In this deeply personal and compassionate episode, April and Larry begin a new series exploring The Power of Gratitude. As the season of Thanksgiving approaches, they talk candidly about what it means to practice gratitude—especially when life doesn't go as planned.April shares vulnerably about walking through loss and grief, inviting listeners into an honest conversation about how gratitude isn't about pretending everything is okay. Instead, it's about choosing to notice what's still good, even in the midst of pain. Together, they discuss how gratitude can transform perspective, renew hope, and bring a small measure of peace, one intentional moment at a time.
In this episode of The Praying Wife Podcast, we dive into what it truly means to live with a grateful heart. Gratitude is more than a reaction to good things - it's a posture of the heart that honors God in every season. Whether life feels full or uncertain, choosing thankfulness changes how we see God, how we pray, and how we experience peace.Join Corain as she reminds us that a grateful heart is a peaceful heart. You'll walk away encouraged to shift your focus from what's missing to what God is already doing in your life.
This week on Beyond Sunday, Evan, Paxton, Michael, and Josh continue into our November series, The First Thanksgiving Feast. The table is the focus again this week: the table of manna in the wilderness and the table of the Lord's Supper today. The team talks about how God's provision isn't always flashy, but it is faithful. Just like Israel learned to trust daily manna, we're learning to receive the Lord's presence and grace as the true Bread of Life who sustains us. The group has some light-hearted fun imagining what food each of them could eat every day for forty years—though thankfully, God knows better than we do about what we need. The conversation moves deeper as they reflect on Jesus giving thanks even for what would break Him. Gratitude, even in struggle, becomes a way that God forms us.

This is your leverage window. Q4 is when companies lock budgets, finalize promotions, set equity, and protect retention risk. Translation: decisions are being made about you—often without you. If you stay quiet, you're already behind. In this episode, Dr. Renee Baker joins me to dismantle the myths and give you a real plan to negotiate raises, titles, and equity without begging or breaking.We tear into the fear narrative—layoffs, headlines, “be grateful and wait your turn.” Gratitude without advocacy is servitude. Silence doesn't pay. You are the CEO of you, and if you don't speak up, you've handed away your leverage. We talk about why it's cheaper to keep you than replace you, how bonuses and timing create retention pressure, and how to use that math in your favor.Then we get tactical. Politics often beats performance, so study the breadcrumbs: who gets promoted, how, and why. Don't bring a task list to a review—bring outcomes. Learn to quantify impact beyond sales, frame results the way your firm rewards them, and ask the right questions in your 1:1s so your leaders carry the right story into the room when you're not there.We close with two heavy hitters: titles and “no.” Titles drive pay bands and access—use them. If they say no, convert it into a timeline, criteria, and checkpoints. If that's not respected, that's your signal. This is not about ego. It's about equity, mobility, and your next seat at the table.Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/sN9-MechYpMConnect with Dr. Renee Baker: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/itsreneebaker/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ItsReneeBaker/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/itsreneebaker Threads: https://www.threads.net/@itsreneebaker YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DrReneeBakerAs always we ask you to comment, DM, whatever it takes to have a conversation to help you take the next step in your journey, reach out on any platform!Twitter, FaceBook, Instagram, Tiktok, LinkedinDISCLOSURE: Awards and rankings by third parties are not indicative of future performance or client investment success.

In this powerful opening to the Generational Wisdom series, Carl invites listeners to rediscover the enduring lessons of the Silent Generation (1928–1945) — people forged by the Great Depression, World War II, and the dawn of modern America. Through vivid storytelling and heartfelt dialogue with Sig Anderman, a serial entrepreneur and subject of the documentary Grit & Gratitude: The Sig Anderman Story. This episode paints a stunning portrait of the quiet virtues that built postwar prosperity. From cardboard shoe soles to moon landings, Carl and Sig explore how hardship shaped a generation of unshakable resolve — and how their radical resourcefulness, perseverance, faith, and community spirit can still guide us today. Listeners are challenged to reflect on what this era's strength says about our own. This episode is ideal for listeners seeking perspective, history enthusiasts, and anyone craving a return to core values like duty, integrity, and unity. The Silent Generation reminds us that gratitude, faith, and perseverance are timeless tools for building strength in an age of distraction.
Gratitude is most powerful when its consistent, authentic, and relational. It's not about ignoring hardship but about balancing perspective - training your mind to notice what sustains us, even in difficulty.

Have you ever found yourself staring at a gratitude journal, knowing you have so much to be thankful for, but just not feeling it? This week, I'm sharing a candid look into why gratitude can feel so out of reach when we're tired, stressed, or running on empty, even as the world tells us it's the season to count our blessings. As ambitious women with full plates and big dreams, it's easy to fall into the trap of forcing gratitude, but in this episode, I reveal why rest and presence (not pressure) are the secret ingredients. I'll show you how letting go of the "gratitude checklist" and learning to savor real moments can reignite that sense of appreciation you crave. If you're ready for a fresh perspective on thankfulness that actually fits your busy, brilliant life, this episode is for you. Let's give ourselves permission to experience gratitude as it was meant to be…joyful, effortless, and truly rewarding. Show Highlights: What is the gratitude gap?

Drawing from 2 Timothy 1:5, he traces how his grandmother's prayer life and his father's obedience shaped his own walk with God.

We're officially (or unofficially!) kicking off the holiday season, and what better way to start than with a heart of gratitude? In this episode, I'm joined by Kerry and April, the creative moms and founders behind Turkey on the Table, a simple, hands-on way for families to practice gratitude together all November long. Born out of a preschool parking lot conversation, this sweet idea turned into a nationwide movement helping parents teach their kids to slow down, notice the good, and give thanks in tangible ways. Kerry and April share the inspiring story of how Turkey on the Table came to life, the surprising science behind gratitude, and why small daily habits can make a big impact on our hearts and homes. They also open up about their meaningful partnership with Feeding America, donating over 1.8 million meals to families in need, and the sweetest stories they've heard from homes, classrooms, and even nursing homes using the turkey tradition to spark joy and connection. If you're ready to anchor your family in gratitude and kick off the holidays with more heart, this episode will leave you inspired, grounded, and ready to start your own tradition of thankfulness.

We live in a world that tells us happiness is always just one more step away—one more raise, one more purchase, one more answered prayer. Yet even when we finally get what we thought we wanted, peace still feels out of reach.In this powerful reflection, Jonathan Youssef invites you to pause and consider a radically different kind of joy, the kind that doesn't depend on circumstances. He takes us to a Roman prison cell, where the apostle Paul, chained and hungry, wrote these astonishing words:“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” — Philippians 4:13Paul wasn't celebrating victory; he was declaring trust. From that dark cell came a light that still pierces our restless culture today: the secret of contentment found in Christ alone.Jonathan explores what it means to offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving even when life hurts, and how gratitude can become a spiritual weapon in seasons of loss, waiting, or disappointment.If you've ever wondered how to hold onto peace when everything feels uncertain, this message is for you.True gratitude isn't about pretending life is perfect. It's about believing God still is.Follow Candid Conversations on social media:Instagram: @candidpodTikTok: @officiallycandidpodYouTube: @CandidPodSubscribe & Share:If this episode inspired you, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with others.
In this special compilation of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman sits down with two guests who embody transformation in very different ways. First, Jimmy Rex shares how he walked away from a thriving real estate empire to build a life centered on purpose. After selling Utah's most expensive home and reaching every professional milestone, Jimmy realized success without meaning felt empty. What began as a childhood wound — being told he wasn't good enough — became the fire that drove him to prove his worth. But through deep reflection, he learned to channel that burn into something greater: serving others through his movement We Are The They, helping hundreds of men find connection, purpose, and love over fear.Next, Shannon and Matthew Missimer open up about how slowing down saved their family and led to The Motion of Gratitude. What started as a simple reminder to “be more grateful” evolved into a life-changing mission to live intentionally and teach others to feel gratitude, not just think it. From downsizing their life to traveling through Costa Rica with their kids, the Missimers discovered that real success isn't about doing more — it's about being present, connected, and grounded in what truly matters. Together, these stories remind us that the greatest wins come not from achievement, but from alignment — when you live with intention, purpose, and heart.************************************Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/MyMZSfItme8Listen on all platforms: https://www.theburnpodcast.com************************************Learn about upcoming events and coaching: https://www.workwithbnc.comGet Ben's latest book The STANDARD: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1stWork directly with Ben: https://www.bennewmancoaching.comConnect with Ben Newman:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfightFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFightLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693https://www.bennewmancoaching.com************************************ Learn about our Upcoming events and programs:https://www.workwithbnc.comLet's work TOGETHER https://www.bennewmancoaching.comLet's work together to write YOUR next book- BNC PublishingSend us a message Order my latest book The STANDARD: Winning at YOUR Highest Level: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1st Phorm | The Foundation of High Performance Nutrition1stPhorm.com/bnewman Connect with me everywhere else: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfight Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFight Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693

Send us a textWant your child to trade boredom and entitlement for empathy, confidence, and real-world skills? We unpack how consistent, hands-on service can flip that switch. We dive into why serving others accelerates brain development from self-focus to perspective-taking, and how repeated, real-life interactions build emotional intelligence that screens can't teach. You'll hear how mission work reframes what kids think they need to be happy. If your teen is stuck, we outline small, likely-to-succeed steps: a food bank drop-off, a nursing home visit, or a neighborhood cleanup. We share red flags like chronic boredom, entitlement, and the growing “I need” list, plus the counterintuitive fix: more service, not more stuff. Parents will learn to model compassion through tiny daily acts—holding doors, returning neighbors' trash bins, paying it forward—and to frame service as “helping others,” not punishment. The result is a family identity built on showing up, preparing kids to be good neighbors, grounded leaders, and trusted teammates employers actually seek.Ready to build empathy, gratitude, and purpose at home?

Gratitude as a spiritual practice is transformative and can renew the mind, body and soul.
My guest is Dr. David Fajgenbaum, MD, professor of translational medicine and human genetics at the University of Pennsylvania. He explains how, unbeknownst to most doctors, many approved medications can successfully treat or even cure diseases other than the ones they are typically used to treat. He shares his story of escaping death from Castleman's disease by discovering a life-saving treatment using repurposed drugs that were approved for other purposes.

Unexpressed gratitude is perceived as ingratitude. In this episode, Andy Stanley and co-host Suzy Gray unpack one of the most overlooked leadership habits—expressing gratitude. Most leaders feel thankful for their teams but fail to say it out loud. And when we don’t express gratitude, people don’t assume we’re busy—they assume we’re ungrateful. But appreciation builds loyalty, strengthens culture, and fuels motivation far more effectively than paychecks or perks ever could.
