In this episode, we dive into the unique challenges that adult children of dysfunctional families face when it comes to cultivating an attitude of gratitude. Growing up in environments that were chaotic or emotionally neglectful often shapes how we view the world, leaving us with a focus on survival rather than appreciation. We explore the five main reasons why gratitude can feel especially difficult, including conditioned negativity, low self-worth, a lack of role models for gratitude, the fear of vulnerability, and a survival-mode mentality.

If these resonate with you, know you’re not alone—and there are ways to shift these patterns. Head over to Episode 101 for practical steps on how to reframe your outlook, break these ingrained habits, and start building a gratitude practice that feels genuine and sustainable. You won’t want to miss it!
