How to move beyond shallow lists and discover authentic gratitude Gratitude is everywhere these days—gratitude lists, dinner table rituals, affirmations. But what if those practices feel forced, shallow, or even dismissive of your real struggles? In this bonus episode, Bethany and Diane unpack the science and soul of gratitude—why it matters, how it can go wrong, and how to access the kind of gratitude that actually changes how you feel. You'll hear why our brains are wired to take things for granted, what researchers have discovered about the health benefits of true gratitude, and how to avoid "toxic gratitude" that denies your genuine emotions. Bethany shares her simple (and slightly quirky) practice of imagining life without everyday comforts—like socks or blankets—to spark authentic appreciation. Whether you're skeptical of gratitude practices or looking to deepen your own, this episode offers a grounded, practical way to reconnect with joy, contentment, and awe.
