27: The System for Being a Thank-You Person
Description
Have you ever written a heartfelt thank you card and then watched it hibernate in your junk drawer until spring? In today’s episode, I’m sharing simple systems for expressing gratitude and becoming a thank-you person just in time for Thanksgiving.
From handwritten notes to real-time compliments and even thank-you pizzas (with a lesson on paper plates), this episode is packed with quick wins to make gratitude part of your everyday life. I also get personal about the NICU, share how I’m teaching my daughter to say thank you in scribbles, and dive into why setting systems for appreciation can transform relationships.
In this Episode:
- How to thank people in the moment so it sticks
- Why nurses deserve cookies (and not just crumbs)
- The secret email phrase that sets the tone for every ask
