Gratitude raises our vibe and helps guarantee a great day because it shifts our focus from what's lacking to what's already beautiful and working in our lives. This change in perspective has a powerful effect on both our mind and body: 1. Energetic Alignment: Gratitude aligns your energy with abundance rather than scarcity. When you appreciate even small things, you naturally attract more of what feels good, because your vibration is tuned to positivity. 2. Mood Booster: Practicing gratitude increases levels of dopamine and serotonin—the "feel-good" neurotransmitters—helping to reduce anxiety, stress, and even depression. 3. Shifts Attention: When you start the day with gratitude, your attention tunes in to moments of beauty, kindness, and flow instead of dwelling on problems or stress. 4. Creates Presence: Gratitude roots you in the now, which is the only moment you can truly influence. This presence helps you respond calmly, make better decisions, and savor life more. 5. Strengthens Relationships: Expressing gratitude to others improves your connections, opening space for more kindness, support, and love—creating a ripple effect throughout your day. So in essence, gratitude works like a frequency tuner—it helps you lock into the best emotional and energetic station available.

Be honest… if your past self met your current self, what’s the first thing they’d be shocked, confused, or even judgy about? share your answer in the comments below and reflect on how much you have changed for me if my 2017 self (the version of me BEFORE I went full time on YT) saw who I was now, they would be proud and inspired forsure. At the same time they may be surprised to see me doing hotseat coaching on stage and the dynamic coaching I do. In the past I always assumed I would just be speaking on stage without as much interaction. They wouldn't be surprised that I don't smoke, drink, etc he would DEF be surprised that up until this point I have ran plant medicine retreats for the last 5 years... he would judge my longer hair forsure and some of my tattoos not knowing where that inspiration came from! and he would be surprised to see I no longer force Youtube videos and just focus on doing what I love (running live events) all in all it would be an interesting meeting! what about you?
