But here’s the real question—are you actually letting it in?Because gratitude isn’t just about what you acknowledge—it’s about what you’re willing to receive. And for so many of us, that’s the hardest part. We can express appreciation, we can say the words, but when love, kindness, and abundance come our way… we deflect. We minimize. We struggle to hold it.In this episode, I sit down with intuitive, trauma-informed coaches Dan Blackman and Veronique Navette for a deep conversation on gratitude—not just as a mindset, but as something that reshapes your entire relationship with yourself. We explore:✨ The link between gratitude and self-worth—and how so many of us reject the good things we say we want✨ How to practice gratitude when life feels heavy and you can’t find anything to be grateful for✨ The energetics of gratitude—why saying “I’m grateful” means nothing if your energy isn’t aligned with it✨ How learning to receive gratitude can shift everything from your relationships to your manifestations.If you’ve ever struggled to believe in the good things being reflected back to you, or if gratitude has ever felt like an obligation instead of a felt experience—this episode is for you.Recorded in June 2024.
