  • Ep 10. Gratitude
    Aug 6 2025

    In the final episode of Series 1, we explore how gratitude can gently shift your mental state , which is not through forced positivity, but by expanding your awareness.

    We’ll look at what science says about gratitude and the brain, why it’s often hard to feel thankful when life feels heavy,and how small, meaningful practices can help anchor you in the present.

    So whether you’re struggling, coasting, or somewhere in between this episode is a grounding reminder that you don’t need a perfect life to notice something good.

    You're doing better than you think.
