**Why PoP Series - Ep. 5 - Growing in Gratitude**

In today's final Why PoP episode I discuss how I use gratitude to create an infectious optimism that spurs me into bold actions which allow me to  live the life I was meant to. I started People of Purpose out of my appreciation for a second chance at life. In the episode I discuss how I analyzed my inner gifts lying on the mountainside in 2011 what I've done and continue to do to capitalize on that gift. I reflect on how gratitude for my special gifts has continually driven me to do my best to lift up others to their greater potential. I started by asking questions, teaching my answers, and blogging for greater understanding. Now I host an international podcast and coach others into their personal paths of purpose. I believe gratitude is the foundation for anything you are trying to accomplish in serving your purpose. Make sure you listen to this essential component of coming into your purpose and let me know what resonates on our Facebook and Instagram pages @peopleofpurposepodcast. Enjoy! --- This week's episode is the final episode in our 5-part Why PoP series. This series delves into the myriad of reasons why and how I'm doubling down on my commitment to People of Purpose as I enter this year as a full-time graduate school student, middle-school teacher in San Francisco, and host of People of Purpose podcast.   Featured media: -  Five Minute Journal   Sign up for PoP's newest course Path to Purpose!! by emailing [email protected] or DM us on Instagram or Facebook @peopleofpurposepodcast   Join our purpose seeking podcast community at...   Facebook   Instagram   YouTube Channel   Facebook Group - Purpose Seekers     Sign up for the Monthly PoP Newsletter by emailing: [email protected]   Help More Find Their Purpose by Donating to the Podcast Contribute to the Discussion @ PoP Facebook and Instagram
