Thanksgiving and Having an Attitude of Gratitude

In this episode I discuss what gratitude really means to me as a mom and a person. I believe the ultimate gratitude practice is believing your strong willed child happened “for” rather than “to” you and I walk you through an exercise about how to do that.

Topics: 

•  Hedonic Adaptation 
•  Gratitude is a practice that can be cultivated and directly links to happiness 
•  Gratitude affects many areas of your life in positive ways - personality, health, emotional, social and career 
•  Strong willed kids happen “for” not “to” you 
•  “Future You” exercise to get you into a gratitude practice
