Gratitude Changed My Life

From the outside, it looked like I had a great life: I was young, ambitious, had a good job and enjoyed many travel adventures…

But on the inside, I was a mess! I constantly compared myself to others. I tried to be genuinely happy for my friends when they got promoted, became engaged or had babies, but I was secretly jealous. I wasn’t sure there was a path forward in my job or my relationship. I felt stuck, as though life was passing me by. And I had to push so hard to achieve my goals that I didn’t feel like celebrating when I did.

And then I discovered gratitude. Creating a practice changed my life. I quickly shifted into thankfulness for all the good in my life, I experienced more joy, I became a more genuine and generous friend, I started to see so much good and beauty in the world — and, suddenly, the things I’d been wishing for rushed toward me with little effort… like that car I sold for more than I’d paid for it three years earlier, and that condo that just came to me when I set the intention to buy a home.

Since those early days, my gratitude practice has waxed and waned, but I always find my way back to it when I need more joy, fulfillment, abundance or magic in my life. I’ve learned to use it along with the Law of Attraction when seeking new jobs, a practice that brought me 25% and 31.5% salary increases.

I’m grateful to have discovered gratitude. Research shows it reduces stress, enhances happiness, improves relationships and has other health benefits, too. Through my journey, I learned to practice gratitude in a way that’s embodied, integrated and deliberate. I want to share what I’ve learned with as many people as I can — and that’s why I’ve created my new 8-module online course and transformational program, gratitudeU. It’s my signature system to train your brain for gratitude so you can start experiencing greater joy, abundance and fulfillment in your life right now.
