Send us Fan MailThe Capacity to Have and Live “Whole” - ContentmentWhat if the word you've been underestimating your whole life is the very key to what you've been reaching for? In this episode, we explore contentment — not as a lesser version of happiness, but as the deep, stabilizing foundation from which real growth, goals, and real quality of life are built.We'll walk through the “Goal Sandwich framework” for grounding your desires in what you already have. We'll unpack the concept of capacity — your internal readiness to hold good things when they arrive. And we'll close with three reflection questions designed to take you from the surface all the way to your soul.This one is foundational. This one is for you. Quote of the Week: “He who is not contented with what he has, would not be contented with what he would like to have.”— Socrates I want to leave you with three questions to carry into your week. To sit with. Let them breathe. 1.  What am I happy with right now? (The surface check-in. Start here. It's a valid place to begin.) 2.  What brings me genuine satisfaction? (Go deeper. What actually feels like enough? What do you already have that you truly wanted?) 3.  Do I have the capacity to hold this satisfaction? (The transformational question. Am I willing to let this be real? Am I home to receive what I've already been given?) That third question — that is where the work lives. That is where wellness deepens from concept into lived experience. This is where our maintenance of the good things we build remains.Let's go, let's get it done.Get more information at: http://projectweightloss.org

What if the conflicts wearing you down are actually pointing you toward something you haven't yet faced in yourself?In this conversation, Dr. Anastasia Chopelas sits down with conflict resolution specialist and longtime friend, Phyllis Olins, whose book The Conflict Crunch: How to Turn Conflict Into Opportunity releases September 23, 2026. Drawing on 30 years of professional work in schools and communities — and a practice rooted in gratitude and energetic awareness — Phyllis shares how even the most difficult conflicts can open the way to genuine clarity, healthy boundaries, and personal sovereignty.They discuss why the mind, like the body, runs on a binary system, and how that pull toward the negative throws us out of alignment. Phyllis shares the story that started it all: Mrs. Luna, a mother of 16, who chose praise in the middle of hardship — and changed how Phyllis understood conflict forever. The conversation also covers projection, the unity of body, mind, and spirit, and why accepting your own faults is often the fastest path to peace in your relationships.Find Phyllis at conflictcrunch.com.

Dr. Laura offers a reassuring perspective in this solo episode, exploring how to stay grounded when the world and work feel uncertain and overwhelming. Drawing on her experience as a psychologist, she explains how fear can push us into fight, flight, or freeze responses, which ultimately drain energy and disrupt relationships. Dr. Laura brings the focus back to the present moment, encouraging us to reconnect with what's in our control today instead of getting swept up in global uncertainty and negative news cycles.  Dr. Laura shares practical ways to restore calm and clarity through simple yet powerful practices, including the three W's of walk, window, and water, which she learned from her friends at CALM. She urges us to reconnect with activities that recharge our personal energy. The importance of setting boundaries with media and social platforms, while cultivating gratitude and self-awareness in daily life, is part of achieving this recharge. With warmth and insight, Dr. Laura reminds us that even in difficult times, small intentional actions help build resilience, restore perspective, and create a sense of peace. “Staying grounded means what can you control today and this week?” - Dr. Laura About Dr. Laura: Dr. Laura Hambley Lovett is a work and career psychologist and thought leader on the evolution of work.

"Eating clean" is more than a diet; it’s a dialogue with your cells. In this deeply personal episode, Dr. Pinkston welcomes New York Times bestselling author and fitness pioneer Tosca Reno to discuss the evolution of the Eat Clean Revolution and the spiritual journey of transformation. Both women share their remarkable stories of losing over 150 pounds and the "inside job" required to sustain that change. Tosca opens up about her "on her knees" moment in 2013—facing profound loss and bankruptcy—and how she used gratitude, movement, and nutrition to rebuild a life of purpose. In this episode, you’ll discover: Nutrition vs. Food: Why Tosca views plants and protein as "encoded information" for the body rather than just calories. The Molecules of Hope: How physical movement creates biological shifts that combat despair. Transform 12: A deep dive into Tosca’s 12-week high-touch program designed specifically for women over 40 to master nutrition, movement, and emotional self-care. The Identity Shift: Why long-term wellness requires "breaking up" with your old self and embracing the shadow and light of your journey. Kintsugi Wellness: How to repair the broken parts of your life with "gold" to shine brighter than before. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this solo episode, I open up about how I've been in a bit of a mindset rut lately, focusing a bit too much what's not going well in my life and being more critical of myself and others. I noticed I was lingering in this place a bit too long and had the inspiration to pull myself out of it using gratitude. Gratitude is so powerful becasue it's a way to intentionally shift out of negative ways of thinking by training our brain to see ourselves and our lives through a more positive, grounded lens. Our minds are naturally wired to focus on what's wrong and there is something really powerful about redirecting our attention toward what's working, what's good, and what we can appreciate. I deeply believe having a regular gratitude practice is one of the most impactful ways to do that and it's been something that has helped me feel so much more joyful and happy in my every day life. In this episode, I walk you through 4 simple, doable ways to start weaving gratitude into your everyday life so you can feel more at peace, present, and fulfilled. I also share the 30-day, 3-minute gratitude practice I'm personally committing to right now. Maybe you'll feel inspired after listening to this episode to join me!

In this episode of Fishing Without Bait, Jim Ellermeyer and Mike dive into the transformative power of gratitude and what it means to live as a “high-frequency” person. Drawing from principles rooted in 12-step recovery and mindfulness, Jim explains how shifting your mindset—away from comparison, criticism, and complaint—can fundamentally change your thinking, relationships, and even your brain chemistry. Together, they explore how gratitude isn't just a feeling, but a disciplined practice that reshapes perspective and attracts more positive, authentic connections. The conversation also tackles real-world challenges: handling gossip, navigating negativity in professional environments, and learning the “graceful art of leaving” situations that no longer serve you. Through relatable examples and practical techniques—like redirecting conversations or simply saying “I don't need to know”—listeners gain tools to set boundaries without conflict. Jim introduces a powerful mindfulness exercise centered on prioritizing who and what you “nourish” in your life, emphasizing the importance of investing energy into supportive relationships rather than draining ones. This episode is a reminder that everyone is in recovery from something—and that choosing gratitude, awareness, and intentional action can lead to a more fulfilling life.

If you can make conversation, you can make your own luck.Good communication isn't passive. And good luck, says Tina Seelig, is the same. There's “what the world gives us,” and then there's “how we respond to it.”Seelig is executive director of the Knight-Hennessy Scholars Program at Stanford University and author of What I Wish I Knew About Luck. For her, good fortune doesn't find us, we find it. “Opportunities for lucky things to happen are ubiquitous. But they're invisible and most people don't see them,” she says. In the same way that communication requires active listening, making our own luck requires presence to the people and possibilities that come our way.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Seelig and host Matt Abrahams explore how communication creates luck. From curious listening to resolving the conflicts that block opportunity, Seelig offers practical ways to respond to what life offers — and turn everyday interactions into the foundation for good fortune.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Tina SeeligTina's Book: What I Wish I Knew About LuckEp.111 Rethinks: How to Spark Creativity in Your CommunicationEp.159 Earn Your Audience: You Can't Lead If No One's Listening Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:46) - Luck vs. Fortune (03:55) - The Idea of Making Luck (04:40) - Building Your Luck Framework (05:49) - Listening Creates Opportunity (06:56) - Focus on Others (09:57) - Staying Connected to Others (11:09) - Appreciation as a Habit (12:04) - How Conflict Blocks Luck (13:35) - Apologies Create Opportunity (14:33) - Ask, Don't Assume (16:26) - Communicating for Your Audience (18:13) - Prepare Your Stories (21:46) - The Final Three Questions (26:16) - Conclusion ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.Strawberry.me.

How to communicate for deeper connection—and greater happiness.Happiness isn't just a feeling—it's something you can actively shape through how you think, connect, and communicate.Sonja Lyubomirsky, a distinguished professor of psychology at the University of California, Riverside and co-author of How to Feel Loved: The Five Mindsets That Get You More of What Matters Most, defines happiness as two key components: “being happy in your life and being happy with your life.” And while many people separate happiness from meaning or purpose, she explains that “they almost always go together.” Her research shows how the small habits we practice—like gratitude—can have a powerful effect, helping to “neutralize negative emotions” and shift how we see our lives. In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Lyubomirsky and host Matt Abrahams explore the science of wellbeing and the habits that help us feel more fulfilled. From gratitude practices to breaking free from the comparison trap, they share practical strategies for boosting happiness and explain why connection isn't just about being loved, but truly “feeling loved.”Episode Reference Links:Sonja LyubomirskySonja's Book: How To Feel Loved179.

Is positive psychology real science… or just another version of “just think positive” that ignores real stress?In this episode of the Free to Be Mindful Podcast, Vanessa De Jesus Guzman sits down with positive psychology expert Diane Lang to explore what the research actually says about gratitude, resilience, mindset, and positive aging.If you are raising kids, juggling work, navigating midlife changes, or feeling stretched thin, you may have wondered whether practices like gratitude really make a difference. Is it toxic positivity? Or is there measurable science behind it?This conversation breaks down:The difference between positive psychology and forced positivityWhy we need three positive emotions to balance one negativeHow gratitude rewires the brain over timeThe role belief systems play in midlife transitions and agingWhy lifestyle and mindset influence longevity more than we thinkPositive psychology does not deny grief, anxiety, or depression. It works alongside therapy, medication, and traditional treatment to build emotional resilience and long-term wellbeing.For moms navigating stress, perimenopause, identity shifts, and the invisible load of family life, this episode offers practical, research-backed habits that are realistic, free, and sustainable.THREE KEY TAKEAWAYS1. Positive psychology is evidence-based and practical. It strengthens resilience without dismissing pain. It is about building emotional capacity, not pretending everything is fine.2. Gratitude and kindness shift your brain over time. Consistent daily practices improve sleep, mood, and stress recovery by retraining your negativity bias.3. Positive aging starts with mindset. Genetics play a role, but lifestyle, belief systems, relationships, and daily habits have significant influence over how we age physically and emotionally.Connect with Diane: https://dianelang.org/ If this episode challenged your thinking or shifted your perspective, share it with another mom who may need it.Because the more good we train our brains to notice, the more grounded we become.In a world where you are free to be anything, you are always free to be mindful.Send a textSupport the show120 COPING SKILLShttps://www.freetobemindful.com/podcast-120copingskillsGET THE MUSE HEADBAND AT A DISCOUNT!https://choosemuse.com/freetobemindfulUse this link to get 15% off your total when you purchase the amazing brain sensing headband that tells you when you're in a meditative state and guides you to improve your practice.LET'S STAY CONNECTED:

In this episode of the Imagine Belonging Podcast, Rhodes Perry invites listeners to shift their relationship with gratitude—from a passive reaction when things go well to an intentional practice of resilience. Drawing on the rich sensory experiences of a recent pilgrimage to India, Rhodes guides listeners through a deep, 20-minute somatic meditation designed to metabolize safety and build the resilience required to lead through collapse and chaos. Rather than bypassing the difficulties of leadership or "white-knuckling" through stress, Rhodes challenges leaders to ground themselves in the material, the communal, and the spiritual to access a generative state. This episode offers a sanctuary for the busy executive mind, teaching you to show up in your own power, express yourself without apology, and claim the agency you need to be the authentic leader your team is waiting for and needs. Key Reflections & Timestamps: [0:00] The Practice of Gratitude: Why gratitude is a mood we must practice to build leadership resilience, not just a reaction to good news. [3:00] Grounding in the Material: A somatic inquiry into the Earth and systems that support us, allowing leaders to feel held without needing to control everything. [7:00] The Community of Trust: Visualizing the mentors and guides who create safety, and how to metabolize that support to lower hyper-vigilance. [11:00] The Sky & Spirit: Expanding perspective beyond the immediate "to-do" list to access intuition and the bigger picture. [15:00] Unapologetic Self-Gratitude: A powerful invitation to thank yourself for your own courage, healing, and the choice to prioritize authenticity over people-pleasing. [18:00] Integration & Affirmations: Locking in the generative state to carry into your next meeting or decision.

Send a textIn this first part of our Radiant Grace series, we explore what it means to practice peace in the bodies we live in right now. We share a tender conversation about trading self-critique for worship, replacing shame with gentleness, and learning to listen when our bodies speak quietly. Guided by Psalm 139 and Romans 12:1, we reflect on how design, dignity, and daily choices meet in our skin. We talk honestly about Christina's experience with chemo, surgery, and recovery, and how those realities reshaped our rhythms and deepened our awareness that the Holy Spirit dwells in us today—not in a future, polished version of ourselves. Isaiah 42:3 helps us see God's kindness toward our bruised places, while we consider how to honor limitations without surrendering to them.We invite you into a simple, repeatable practice: soften your shoulders, release your jaw, breathe a prayer, and say, “I'm listening.” Together, we ask what our bodies need—rest, movement, nourishment, or quiet—and respond with small acts of radiant grace. We also re-frame the mirror by naming what our bodies have done in love and service, letting gratitude renew our thinking. Anchored in Ephesians 2:10, we remember our callings are lived out through our bodies, and caring for them is part of the mission. If you're tired of striving for a someday body, we're choosing a kinder way to live and worship right now—and inviting you to join us.Support the showLearn more about our Revelation Within Community: https://www.revelationwithin.org

Welcome to Follow Your Gut. Daily Anchors.I'm Juniper, and I'll be guiding you in this daily embodiment practice for grounding, expansion, and self-leadership.Today's anchoring practice is about gratitude, affirmation, and intention. Not as concepts, but as daily practices that change how your body experiences life.So often, especially when we are healing or supporting our child or someone we love through healing, our attention becomes very zoomed in. We focus on what's wrong, what needs to change, what feels hard, what still isn't better yet.This makes sense. Our brains are wired to look for problems to solve.But when we live only in that zoomed-in space, we unintentionally give more power to what feels broken than to what is actually working. And over time, that keeps the nervous system in a state of vigilance instead of safety.Gratitude is one of the most powerful ways to gently zoom out.Not to bypass the pain.Not to pretend things are perfect.But to remind your body that life is happening right now, and there is more here than just what feels hard.Gratitude creates safety.And safety is what allows affirmation to actually land in the body.As you come out of this practice, take a moment to gently set your anchors for the day.Today, I commit to nourishing my body with microbiome friendly food and abundant water.Today, I choose to support my mind, brain, nervous system, and liver with my rebalancing or maintenance supplements.Today, I trust that I am safe, and that everything is always working for me.And today, I will choose one small action that supports the life I am affirming.Let this practice orient your day and remind you that alignment is built through small, consistent choices.May your heart feel supported, your body feel safe, and your intuition lead your day.Trust your body. Follow your gut. Thanks for listening!

What if this thing (that you already have) was the secret to growth? Today's episode is a little different... kinda like a heart-to-heart (nice way to say rant lol) I just got off a deep call with my coach, and wow — it hit hard. Ever feel like you're stuck doing stuff that doesn't feel like you? Yeah... me too. This conversation made me ask big questions. - What if I've been showing up as someone I'm not? - What happens when we *really* show up as our true selves? - And what if that's the reason things finally click — in content, business, and even life? I'll share a super weird (but powerful) experiment I'm trying that's already shifting how I create, how I sell, and who I attract. Even my wife thought this was insane haha! Plus, I've got a story about a podcast, some spicy feedback from family, and what to *actually* do with opinions that don't sit right. Let's just say... this one's raw, real, and might give you that nudge you didn't know you needed. Enjoy! and Happy Holidays! Tune in and enjoy!

Hey girlfriend, happy day after Thanksgiving. Maybe yesterday was really hard for you. Maybe you broke a boundary. Maybe you're beating yourself up right now. Maybe you barely survived Thanksgiving dinner and you're exhausted. You made it through. You're here. And today, we're going to talk about gratitude anyway. In this special mini episode, host Lindsey Nichol gets vulnerable about a season when she couldn't feel grateful for anything - when she was so trapped in her eating disorder that gratitude felt impossible. She shares what she's genuinely, deeply thankful for this season, and invites you to find your own gratitude too - even in the mess, even in the middle of the struggle. Because here's the truth: Gratitude doesn't require perfection. It doesn't require having it all together. It doesn't require that yesterday went well. Gratitude just requires being willing to look for the light, even in the hard. Plus: A special Black Friday opportunity to invest in yourself and your recovery (because the best investment you'll ever make is in your own healing). This is a quick dose of hope, vulnerability, and possibility for the day after Thanksgiving. You survived yesterday. Now let's find the gratitude together. In This Mini Episode, You'll Hear: If Yesterday Was Hard Maybe you broke a boundary at Thanksgiving dinner Maybe you're beating yourself up today Maybe you barely survived and you're exhausted You made it through - and that matters Today we're talking about gratitude anyway When Gratitude Felt Impossible Lindsey's vulnerable truth: there was a season she couldn't FEEL gratitude Not that she wasn't grateful - she literally couldn't access the feeling Trapped in the eating disorder, consumed, numb, disconnected Sitting at Thanksgiving tables saying generic things but not feeling it Just surviving, just getting through, counting and calculating If that's where you are today - Lindsey sees you, she's been you Recovery gave her gratitude back - the ability to not just say it but FEEL it That's possible for you too What Lindsey Is Thankful For This Season: #1: Her Clients and Listeners (YOU) This community of women fighting for their freedom Doing the hard things, showing up even when it's scary Women in one-on-one coaching keeping promises to themselves Women in Recovery Collective supporting each other Messages saying "this episode came at the exact right time" You inspire her every single day You remind her why she does this work You remind her that recovery is possible Thank you for trusting her with your stories #2: Recovery Is a Journey That it's not linear Constantly evolving, growing, teaching Used to think recovery meant "fixed" - arriving at perfection But recovery taught her it's not about arriving, it's the JOURNEY Learning and growing and evolving Becoming more of who she's meant to be, one choice at a time Grateful she gets to keep learning and discovering Grateful she gets to mess up and extend herself grace Recovery isn't a destination - it's a way of life Choosing yourself every day #3: Keeping Promises  This might sound small, but it's everything For so long, she broke every promise to herself Every broken promise reinforced she couldn't trust herself Recovery taught her that keeping promises builds self-trust Proves to herself she's worthy of showing up for Now she keeps her promises - not perfectly, but consistently That has changed everything She can look in the mirror and know when she says she'll do something, she does it That's freedom. That's recovery. Your Gratitude Invitation What are YOU thankful for this season? It might feel hard, especially if yesterday was rough But look for it anyway - gratitude doesn't require perfection Maybe you're thankful you made it through Thanksgiving (even if messy) Maybe you're thankful for one person who showed up for you Maybe you're thankful you're still here, still fighting, still trying Maybe you're thankful for your body (even if you don't love it) because it's carrying you Maybe you're thankful that recovery is possible, even if you're not there yet Find it.

Prompts if You're Struggling: What's one thing that went RIGHT yesterday (even if small)? Who is one person in your corner? What's one thing your body did for you yesterday? What's one step you've taken in recovery (no matter how small)? What's one hope you have for your future? What's one thing you can appreciate about yourself today?

Are you beating yourself up about something? What's one thing you can give yourself grace for? Did you make it through? (If yes, that counts!) About Gratitude: When was the last time you felt genuine gratitude? What made that moment different? What's blocking you from feeling grateful today? Can you practice looking for light even in the hard? About Your Recovery: Are you doing this alone or do you have support? What would change if you had community? What would change if you had personalized guidance? What's holding you back from investing in yourself? About Black Friday: What are you investing in today?

If you've been doing the journaling, the visualizing, the aligned action, yet things still aren't moving... this is the shift you've been missing.Abundance isn't something you get once life finally changes. It's an inner state you embody, and it's rooted in both energetics and nervous system regulation. When you stop chasing “more” and start grounding into enoughness, your frequency changes and life responds.We'll explore why waiting for proof keeps you stuck, how scarcity shows up in the body, and simple, grounded practices to feel abundant now. This episode will help you reframe old patterns, regulate your energy, and return to a baseline of inner sufficiency that becomes magnetic.✨ Want to go deeper? Explore Anchor Into Abundance

Hello, beautiful souls. Welcome back to The Create! Podcast with me, your host, Kat. In today's episode, I'm diving into a topic that's been deeply present in my own creative journey — the sneaky ways our ego can sabotage our growth and how to shift it. Our ego often shows up in disguise: through comparison, fear, doubt, or even the desire to “grow too fast.” It's that part of us that tells us we need a certain number to feel safe or successful, that we “should be further ahead,” or that our current progress isn't enough. I'll share how these patterns have shown up in my own business and art career — and the lessons I learned while reclaiming gratitude, trust, and presence in the process. Then, I'll be answering your amazing questions from our Create! community over at @createmagazine broadcast channel, including: How to handle taxes or debt while starting your creative business What to do during slower art seasons and how to prepare for them How to navigate criticism from friends or other artists And how to start attracting more collectors and buyers on social media Before we dive in, a quick reminder that enrollment is now open for my live coaching program, The Art of Money — a six-week experience designed to help you release money blocks, rewrite your money story, and step into a new level of abundance and confidence as a creative entrepreneur. We begin November 4, and I would love to guide you through this next chapter.

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I explore the science of gratitude and how to develop an effective, research-supported gratitude practice. I explain why common gratitude practices (like simply listing things you're grateful for) are far less impactful than engaging in story-based gratitude practices. I also explain how being grateful activates specific brain regions, which enhance calm, social connection and motivation, while reducing anxiety and inflammation. Finally, I share why we can't simply trick our brains into feeling grateful and describe a practical weekly gratitude practice that will improve both your mental and physical well-being.
