More ways to listen:

 
 

We all know that we have plenty of things to be grateful for.  But how often do we slow down enough to discover just how much we really have?

Taking the time to "count your blessings" isn't just about appreciating life — although that's part of it.  Research shows that choosing gratitude actually improves every aspect of your well-being.

Gratitude changes your life.

We've come to realize that there are 3 areas where we can discover gratitude.  Two might be familiar to you, but the third could surprise you.

In this episode, we'll share those 3 specific areas of gratitude and some of the things that we're personally grateful for! Oh, and by the way…

…one of those things we're grateful for is YOU — our listeners! 

Thanks for connecting with us every week!  Okay, hit play wherever you're listening, and let's discover some new things about gratitude.

You'll Discover:

  • How gratitude can positively impact your own well-being and your family dynamics

  • 3 specific areas of gratitude that will help you maintain your focus and avoid grumpiness

  • Resources for guiding your kids and step-kids toward an attitude of gratitude
