From the interview:"Wanting what I have. For me that is that is the key to gratitude and that may not be a very unique way to describe it, I don't know. A lot of people might think of it that way but that for me that's what that's what unlocks the Gratitude in my brain and in my heart. It's not to say that I can't desire to have other things or pursue other goals. But if I want my wife, if I want my kids, not somebody else's kids, if I want my clients, if I want my podcast, then I'm thankful, right? If I wanted your podcast, then I'm not going to be thankful, right?

Laura K Roe is a veteran journalist and editor, who, as a newspaper reporter and magazine writer, interviewed murderers, rapists, politicians, scientists, and CEOs.By her late twenties, she had also survived and witnessed PTSD-triggering violence and abuse. Even though she wrote one murder mystery novel and garnered an agent, between all her reporting deadlines, Laura could never find the time to get it published or write another. It’s no wonder that, by her mid-thirties, Laura had devolved into an anxious cynic with declining health and a propensity to over-indulge in coffee and vino.Laura hit rock bottom at 39 when her husband left. She had an eight-month-old baby and a seven-year-old to care for. Her job as a parenting & pregnancy editor vanished. Her mother was dying. And she had just moved back from London to Los Angeles. Little did she know that her journey to wholeness had just begun.Resources:Laura's website: https://www.laurakroe.comStay in touch on social:Insta: https://www.instagram.com/thegratitudepodcast/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/GeorgianBentaFacebook: http://facebook.com/TheGratitudePodcast/  Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Timestamps: The Power of Gratitude [00:00:00] Gratitude is a tool that helps mitigate life's challenges and empowers individuals to have options other than the bad things that happen. Conflict as an Opportunity for Growth [00:03:52] Conflict is normal and an opportunity to grow and learn more about oneself and others. It is not about who is right or wrong, but about learning and understanding. Dealing with Conflict in Personal Relationships [00:09:15] When dealing with conflict, it is important to identify the problem to be solved and the need that needs to be met. It is not about making the other person the problem, but coming from a place of vulnerability and understanding. Identifying the problem [00:10:09] Kimberly Best talks about how identifying the problem is the first step in solving it together. Valuing the relationship over being right [00:11:19] The speakers discuss how valuing the relationship is more important than being right in a conflict. Avoiding conflict [00:17:10] Kimberly Best shares her experience with being conflict avoidant and how honesty is key in resolving conflicts. Sharing and Verbalizing [00:19:44] The benefits of sharing and verbalizing our problems with others to gain perspective and reduce their perceived magnitude.

We're joined today by Nimo, the artist behind one of the most beautiful gratitude songs with over 2m views on Youtube. His unique perspective on complaining and gratitude is so powerful and I'm happy to be sharing it with you! Nimo Patel went from an Ivy League education to Wall Street, to fame and fortune as a MTV Rap star but didn't find fulfillment in his worldy success. For the past 10 years Nimo has been serving and working with the underprivileged communities in the Gandhi Ashram in India. Most recently Nimo has reconnected to his roots of music and is offering this gift of love, peace and oneness through his songs: an offering he calls "Empty Hands Music". Nimo chose the title 'Empty Hands', because of the profound wisdom we all can gain when we understand this deeper truth: that we arrive on this planet empty handed and we will all soon leave empty handed.

Our guest endured a rough upbringing before becoming a proud Marine right out of high school. He was trained to fight the enemy and was prepared for war. When he volunteered for a combat tour in Iraq, little did he know his real battle would be fought in his mind.After eight years of military service, Sgt Q suffered from depression, anger, and panic attacks and was diagnosed with PTSD. Sgt Q traded the battlefield for the mission field and found healing and purpose through building homes and churches, feeding children, and supplying precious hope to struggling communities worldwide.He felt called to form QMissions, a pathway for veterans—SgtQ’s fellow warfighters—to replace the battle scars of their minds with the joy of serving.Now, Sgt Q is the award-winning author of Healing Thru Service originally aimed at struggling veterans, which also offers help for anyone in crisis and may be one's ticket to a more fulfilled life. He went from being homeless and on the brink of suicide to starting the multi-million dollar company with over 100 employees, Reliable Commercial Cleaning, founding the veteran non-profit, Q Missions, and the health-tech startup, Q Actual 2.0.

Nancy Stevens is Mom to 4 sons age 14, 16, 23 and 24.  She is married to a Grammy award winning music producer.  Becoming a more grateful and an everyday grateful person began when she took her first yoga class and the practice of being grateful through mindfulness was introduced.      She often felt a covering of negativity and frustration and realized that this was not how she wanted to be and live.    This way was emotionally crippling. The open door of a non judgmental yoga class placed her on the path of healing and gratitude growth.     Nancy is a healer and uses her expertise as a yoga teacher, yoga trainer and wellness coach to help people.   Gratitude in her own words and experience: "Practicing gratitude on a personal and professional level has changed me from the inside out, literally."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

She felt so ashamed that she didn’t talk to anyone about what she was going through — not even when she was diagnosed with pre-diabetes and PCOS, or had major weight loss surgery (and gained the weight back). Taking back her power started with a deeper, kinder understanding of herself.

Laura K Roe is a veteran journalist and editor, who, as a newspaper reporter and magazine writer, interviewed murderers, rapists, politicians, scientists, and CEOs.By her late twenties, she had also survived and witnessed PTSD-triggering violence and abuse. Even though she wrote one murder mystery novel and garnered an agent, between all her reporting deadlines, Laura could never find the time to get it published or write another. It’s no wonder that, by her mid-thirties, Laura had devolved into an anxious cynic with declining health and a propensity to over-indulge in coffee and vino.Laura hit rock bottom at 39 when her husband left. She had an eight-month-old baby and a seven-year-old to care for. Her job as a parenting & pregnancy editor vanished. Her mother was dying. And she had just moved back from London to Los Angeles. Little did she know that her journey to wholeness had just begun.Resources:Laura's website: https://www.laurakroe.comFrom Lack To Abundance: https://georgianbenta.com/abundanceSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

John Lee Dumas is the founder and host of Entrepreneur on Fire. He interviewed inspiring entrepreneurs 7 days a week (wow) and has won a Best of iTunes award in 2013.     He is himself a very successful entrepreneur and a very successful one, earning millions per year. He and his girlfriend Kate Erickson (an inspiring woman that has been a guest on The Gratitude Podcast), publish a monthly income report, being very transparent about their expenses and income, which I find amazing.  He developed the concept of a daily podcast that would feature the story of successful entrepreneurs which he launched on September 22, 2012. Since then, his podcast has been listened to by millions of people every month, mostly entrepreneurs looking for inspiration, and he's had guests like Seth Godin, Gary Vaynerchuk, Barbara Corcoran, Tim Ferris, Brian Tracy, Anthony Robbins and so many more.    What I love about John Lee Dumas is the fact that he is very transparent, he manages to appreciate the journey and he's a really great authentic teacher. I love his quote about comparing ourselves with others. He always tells his community: "Compare and despair" and I found this short quote very useful in my gratitude practice. There's always someone better or more prosperous than you are and by comparing, you end up despairing and not using your time and energy creatively, with gratitude in your heart.    Please feel free to SUBSCRIBE RATE AND REVIEW ON APPLE PODCASTS.

This is not a new episode, but it’s to this day one of the best interviews on the podcast. Naomi is such an inspiring example of thriving in spite of a tough upbringing. She managed to find gratitude even in the most difficult situations while living in the inner city and overcoming abuse, poverty & racism. I believe in the light of recent developments it’s important to honour inspiring people such as Naomi because her story can inspire all of us to become more empathic & appreciative. As a former Registered Nurse with fifteen years of critical care experience she has mentored hundreds of newly-pinned student nurses helping them build confidence and develop the skills necessary to succeed in their demanding career where life and death hang on every decision.She rose to the top of her field and managed to create a beautiful marriage with a terrific attitude of gratitude.

Chris Palmore is a gratitude creator and the founder of Gratitudespace.com.Inspired by the voice of Podcaster Adam Corolla he wrote a gratitude letter to his mom on his birthday. Shortly thereafter, he posted it publicly on Facebook. At the time, he could have never guessed that 4 short months later, his mother would be dead from cancer. He was devastated!This act of gratitude hugely impacted their relationship prior to her untimely death and created an even deeper lasting impression when it was read at her funeral. From there, and based on his own experience with the power of gratitude, Chris set out to assist others with their own gratitude experiences by writing letters to loved ones on the writer’s birthdays. He then launched his first website, Letters of Gratitude as a way to share the letters. Next, he set out on “The Punching Depression Tour” where he met with groups and gathered gratitude videos all along the West Coast beginning in Seattle, to San Francisco, to Los Angeles, and finally finishing the tour in Las Vegas. It was during this trip he was inspired to launch Gratitudespace.com because his original idea of collecting letters had become much more along the journey as he witnessed how gratitude affected people.This led him to interview top podcasters like Lewis Howes and Georgian Benta. He also interviewed Top-selling authors like AJ Jacobs and Paul Boyton and famous filmmaker and Poet, Prince Ea. He’s engaged many celebrities and even has a gratitude video with Jerry Springer! His passion is Reading, Sharing, and creating the spark of “What am I grateful for,” in others. All of the content Gratitudespace creates is made with the single hope of creating that spark. He believes everyone has something to be grateful for and they are just waiting for someone to ask.To get the thyroid test just go to: https://georgianbenta.com/thyroid-test and use the promo code GRATITUDE20See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Over ten thousand hours of meditation and 40 years of studying Buddhist scriptures didn’t stop her from having debilitating fear when she found out she had breast cancer. Dr. Christiane Michelberger wasn’t able to cope and questioned whether everything she had done up until that point was a complete lie...She discovered a book that led her to ask one simple question. That one question led to a true awakening. She realized she was spiritually sleepwalking. She had replaced one illusion for another. But this was only the first step. In her book ‘Finding Awakening’ she shares her no-nonsense journey beyond the self, to peace and freedom. Her mission is to put an end to all suffering.Resources:http://findingawakening.comhttp://instagram.com/thegratitudepodcast/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's frightening. It's scary and we're relying on news and what I would like to suggest, which I've done for myself, is to really temper that and maybe, you know 5, 10, 15 minutes in the morning, but then turn it off and direct your attention to the sunshine coming in through your window or, you know, an audiobook, listen to a story, go for a walk and stay six feet away from anybody walking on the trail with you, but just... just turn it around and we do have that choice, Georgian, right like we have a choice to switch it to turn it around."Get in touch with Therese: http://thereseplummer.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Nathalie Suárez is an International Bellydance Artist, Dance teacher, Dance Movement Therapist and Psychologist.We're exploring what are the things that gratitude and dancing have in common, in this episode.From the episode:"In open places where there's nature, I just feel so grateful to be able to see it, to smell it, to be there, that, it's automatic. I just wanna dance, I just want to move and be part of that and I tried to focus my attention in the little details. Like I'm grateful I have hands to move and then I would just move my hands free, the way that the way they feel like moving like I try not to think but I let my body flow.""Use a playlist to make you happy, find the joy in movement, you know, as kids we have that so clear, but it appears that as we get older, we stop enjoying little things in life. And we forget how to amuse with things and dancing and movement is one of the things that we can never stop discovering because how your body moves today, it might not move tomorrow. And you maybe will have new movements that you didn't even know your body can do the next week, so it's a practice you can do it before you get to the shower. You can do it after a long day at work. Even if it's hard to start. Give it a try!"Resources:IG: https://www.instagram.com/nathsuarez/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

From the interview:"When I was 6 years old, my mother had passed I still remember it vividly to this day. I remember the day after and having to get ready for the funeral or a couple days after and I got up and I was getting my little suit ready and getting ready to get dressed and I realize the sun was still coming up and what we need to realize it's just that the world always turns it continues to turn no matter what happens in our lives, the next day the sun will rise, the next day, we have a new canvas to paint if you will and positive action means, no matter what occurred we continue to take steps forward. Is it easy now? No! Is it going to be hard? Sometimes, but continue to move forward. Those positive action could be smiling, those positive actions could just be remembering good things those positive actions could be focusing on the opportunity that can come from a different situation whether it's a work situation or a loved one situation. What can come out of that's positive?"Bob Brumm - Encouragement EngineerResources:http://bobbrummspeaks.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There is a culturally accepted working hypothesis that there is something inherently wrong with each and every one us, and that we are morally obligated to constantly work toimprove ourselves. This might serve the wellness industrial complex, but it does not serve you, according to meditationteacherandsought-afterglobalkeynotespeaker, Liza Kindred. “You are not broken. You don’t need constant improvement to be a good human. You are not a project, you are a worthy and complete person. Without a doubt, many of us have past traumas or abuses to heal from. To be sure, virtually everyone can benefit from connecting to old wisdom and learning new toolsets. And certainly, many of us have made mistakes that we deeply regret. We feel hurt, we cause hurt, we suffer, and we flounder. But none of this means that we are broken;it means that we arehuman. We are messy and real and doing our best. And that is enough.” Kindred is author of EFF This!

Rohil Jethmalani is a Yogi and he began his journey 7 years ago. In a quest to find his true Self, he visited many masters and guides from different parts of India. Soon the realization dawned that the real Guru is within, and other masters are simply mirrors. He has spent long periods of time over the past few years with his teacher, Ajay Kumar learning Ashtanga in the traditional Mysore-style. Soon afterwards he began to teach, feeling the need to share the sacred practices that have brought about so much peace and fulfilment in his personal journey.He is using yoga as not only a tool for physical transformation, but also to effect deeper mental and spiritual change. And how we met, has a lot to do with this. A few weeks ago I was thinking it would be awesome to have someone on the podcast to explore the deeper effects that yoga has on us, beyond the physical body itself, and after a few days, out of nowhere, Rohil appeared having that exact perspective I was looking for, we got in contact and now here we are. :)See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Things happen for a reason, and I really believe that, you'll understand why when you'll start listening.  Simina is a BI at one of the Big Four and she loves it, but she's also a brave mother that loves to travel with her husband.  She's been using essential oils for years now, and she's sharing with us how an urgent situation got her to start using them for her son and how she's been using them ever since along with her whole family. I'd really love to be able to give you a few bottles to experience the smell and the feelings you get by using the oils, it's divine.  Since we joined, everyone on the team was so generous with us, especially with my love, Andrada, every oil that "called for her", found its way to her one way or another.  The fact that we're doing this together makes me the happiest and I always found out, sooner or later, that Andrada's intuition was right, these oils really are amazing.  You can join our team here: www.georgianbenta.com/premium We opted for the Premium Starter Kit, with the DewDrop ultrasonic diffuser, but in the States, there are so many possibilities.  Feel free to contact me, or Andrada, if you have any questions whatsoever:  [email protected] [email protected]  Or on Instagram http://instagram.com/thegratitudepodcast/ https://www.instagram.com/andrada.cocriu.photography/  We'd love to help out as much as possible and we'll continue to share our experience with the oils!  Become a supporter of this podcast:https://anchor.fm/the-gratitude-podcast/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Daniel Thomas Hind is the founder of EvolutionEat, a transformational diet and lifestyle coaching company that helps overwhelmed individuals evolve their relationship with food. His coaching method is all about skill development. "Healthy eating is a skill you practice and develop over the course of a lifetime, not a goal that you accomplish in a few months," he says. "My goal is to empower my clients to fall in love with the practice of healthy eating, not get them specific results. They'll get the results once they develop the skill." Every week, tens of thousands of people read Daniel’s material to learn about the psychology, mindset, emotions and habits around eating in order to live a healthier, more meaningful life. What really differentiates Daniel from the thousands of other "fitness" coaches (a designation he hates!) out there is that he's one of, if not the only, man who addresses the topic of emotional eating head on - using mindset, skill development principles, and deep coaching instead of typical nutrition optimization.

Michael Nova from Rise Up Eight a non-profit platform designed to highlight the stories of those who never give up. Coming back from the brink of bankruptcy, near permanent blindness and a host of other challenges all at once that taught Michael that the "impossible" is achievable, and that gratitude is the most important thing. His experience changed how he looked at things and his unlikely recovery is what inspired him to share his story with the world in order to inspire others. Michael's inspiring story was recently featured on Entrepreneur.com. He has developed a proven track record of overseeing multiple businesses & creative projects simultaneously. As president of Nova Music Productions, Inc., Michael was previously featured in the New York Times as a pioneer in offering multiple services to independent artists in the music industry. Michael then created Nova Disc and Nova Custom Printing, divisions of the corporation that would focus on offering services to businesses exclusively. Over the years, Nova's clients grew to include NASA, MTV, BET, Google, L’Oreal, Halston, Palm Pictures, & The United Way, and many others. Because the business was doing well, Michael found a calling to give back to the community. He co-founded Metrofly, a non-profit organization that hosted fundraising events for charity.

Since I've started doing yoga I became more aware of my body.  It's similar to going to the gym and becoming aware of all of the muscles that you usually are not aware of.  I've seen a pattern, in some situations whem my body is in a certain condition, it affects how I think and/or how I feel about everything I see, like the lens is changing.  I call this body intelligence, and I think it's very useful and important for us to become aware of the links between our body, our thoughts and our emotions so that we can choose consciously where they lead us: thoughts -> emotions -> action -> results.   Become a supporter of this podcast:https://anchor.fm/the-gratitude-podcast/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Gratitude is a HUGE part of both of Kimi & Pua's lives. They think it's easy and fun to find gratitude in the beautiful, wonderful, exciting things in their lives.  Best Life Ever co-founders Kimi Morton + Pua Pakele and Cabot were drawn together by a calling – a burning desire to help people fall in love with their businesses and their lives! But when gratitude REALLY impacted their lives and their business was when they were able to identify the things they were grateful for in times of challenge and darkness.    Kimi & Pua often experience, what they call, "gratitude anxiety" - which is the feeling that comes over them when someone does something for them or gives a gift, or simply shares kind words and they just can't thank them enough!    So they truly hope people see and know how grateful they are for them, for the many blessings in their lives, for beautiful challenges, and for the amazing opportunities that they get to seize (or gratefully not seize) everyday.      Kimi and Pua believe that we all experience struggles in our lives, and what gratitude has done for us, and what it has the power to do for others, is shine light on the things that help us remember our truth, acknowledge the support that is all around us, and to navigate our challenges from a place of love.  Become a supporter of this podcast:https://anchor.fm/the-gratitude-podcast/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

(Join The Deliciously Grateful Life Support Circle and Mastermind) It's hard to keep a positive habit when we're the only ones doing that.  Our closest people have a big influence, we want to belong and to do that we tend to do the things that they do, to be like them and not doing so isn't too easy.  So what can we do if our inner circle doesn't support our positive habits?

This weekend while eating out, I was appreciating the process it went into having the meal I was having.  Thankfully we trust each other enough so that we can go to a random place, choose what we want to eat, and they bring it, we eat it and we have nothing else to do (except exchange some paper).  But money aside, think about how amazing this is.  Become a supporter of this podcast:https://anchor.fm/the-gratitude-podcast/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

"My energy, every single ounce of it comes from gratitude.” - Gary Vaynerchuck   Gary Vee's net worth in 2017 was $160 millions, he gives jobs to almost 900 employees according to LinkedIn and does a lot of speaking around the world as well.    You need quite a lot of energy to make all of this happen, to manage everything and everyone, so I was curious to explore why he gets his energy from gratitude and how we can model him for the same outcome.    It's not easy to cover the emotional part, the years of experience, his upbringing in just one episode, but I hope you'll get some ideas on how you can extract energy giving gratitude from your own experience of life, by going through Gary Vee's recipe.  Become a supporter of this podcast:https://anchor.fm/the-gratitude-podcast/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Honestly, I'm not there yet, but you can totally feel that Naomi Sodomin, my guest, is, and that's just sooo inspiring. Become a supporter of this podcast:https://anchor.fm/the-gratitude-podcast/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Naomi has a great morning routine that includes gratitude, I love how passionate she is about it, I hope you'll get inspired! :)  Become a supporter of this podcast:https://anchor.fm/the-gratitude-podcast/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Naomi Sodomin's story is so inspirational, she's a great role model for us all, coming from a really difficult situation while growing up, living in houses with no running water, with only her mom taking care of her and her siblings, on a low income. She rose to the top of her field and managed to create a beautiful marriage and a terrific attitude of gratitude, just listen to her passion, you'll definitely feel there's something there, in her story, that can bring a positive shift in your own perspective and life.  Naomi is a passionate messenger, an advocate for women trapped in Corporate America and desperate to escape; her days (and often her nights) are devoted to helping them create a life filled with freedom, joy, and abundance. As a former Registered Nurse with fifteen years of critical care experience she has mentored hundreds of newly-pinned student nurses helping them build confidence and develop the skills necessary to succeed in their demanding career where life and death hang on every decision.

Sometimes, we have to do it. Usually we do it in a reactive way, at times we hurt people's feelings or we end up not achieving what we set out to achieve with the feedback.  If we want to enjoy great relationships, this soft skill is important.

Fritz Colcol is the founder of several businesses (Cafe Le Fit, Thalia Spice Restaurant, Simply Thalia, ZeroDay Partners, Iridium Clothing Co.) even though he just turned 27 in January.  He's been featured in Huffington Post & Forbes and I believe he's a great example for the young generation, especially taking into consideration Fritz being a filipino immigrant that appreciates the blessings and opportunities the US offers.

Gratitude is a great feeling, isn't it? The odd thing is that I've seen myself feel uncomfortable when it came to gratitude.  In this episode we explore why that is, you might find some situations where you do it as well and what we can do about it.  I've also got a surprise for you, you'll hear it in the first second of listening to the new episode. Hope you'll love it (let me know if you do)! :)  Become a supporter of this podcast:https://anchor.fm/the-gratitude-podcast/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This one begins with a joke (not the best one, to be honest), but with a good idea behind it.  We're strong, but sometimes we give our power, to other people, to the stories we tell, but thankfully, gratitude can help us get it back.  PS: so sorry for the glitch that was at the end, fixed it, hope it didn't annoy you too much Become a supporter of this podcast:https://anchor.fm/the-gratitude-podcast/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
