Give With Joy, Receive With Grace: A Thanksgiving Reflection
What happens when you pause long enough to see how much your life has changed? In Episode 237 of the Joy Found Here podcast, I’m reflecting on a year that transformed me in ways I never expected. This Thanksgiving episode is all about gratitude, healing, and the surprising power of letting yourself receive—especially if you’re a lifelong giver.

(01:10) How one year shifted everything in my life
(02:05) The small sliver of hope that carried me through
(04:56) Why receiving with grace became my new practice
(06:39) Facing grief and holiday triggers with honesty

Last year was filled with loss, uncertainty, and heaviness. This year, I’m living a life I once only dreamed about: more freedom, more presence, more intention. I share how a small sliver of hope carried me through darker times, and why receiving with grace has become my new non-negotiable practice. And since the holidays can stir up grief and tenderness, I talk honestly about navigating those feelings and offer a helpful resource for anyone needing support.
I also give a quick look at what’s ahead—our upcoming merch launch, my favorite affiliate finds that truly help, and the gentle reminder that nothing is permanent and change is always possible.
