Just Say Thanks! Why Is Gratitude So Hard?

from Power Up! · host Gila Ross

We open with the deceptively simple question: If gratitude is so obviously good, why do so many of us struggle to express it? What emotional resistance sits underneath?In this thought-provoking episode, we explore one of the most transformative middot: gratitude. Why is it so hard to simply say thank you - to people, and even to Hashem? Through surprising Torah stories, deep psychological insights, and powerful questions for self-reflection, we unpack the real inner work behind gratitude.Check out my book Living Beautifully - how to bring meaning, love and joy into your life based on the timeless wisdom of Pirkei Avot - now available as Audiobook as well as hardback and Kindle - https://amzn.to/48mOUNW
