The Gratitude Podcast

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 GRATITUDE20Experience more abundance on georgianbenta.com/abundanceAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

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? You didn't mean I'm always going to be striving and not feel at Peace."Resources:David's website: http://davidtrotter.tvTo get the thyroid test just go to: https://georgianbenta.com/thyroid-test and use the promo code GRATITUDE20Experience more abundance on georgianbenta.com/abundanceAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

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/Experience more abundance on georgianbenta.com/abundanceAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Actress, Writer, Director and Multiple Award-Winning Audiobook Narrator Thérèse Plummer has recorded over 400 titles of all genres for various publishers and she can be seen in an upcoming episode of Virgin River on Netflix soon. Thérèse has narrated all 20 books in the Virgin River (by Robyn Carr) series and voiced every single character in each book (men, women and children)!Her favorite quote: "The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart." - Helen KellerWe talked about the power of book, audiobooks in particular and how they can help us enjoy different kinds of experiences while we're safe at home. Here's a quote from the interview:"And I love what you also said about our current situation with the quarantine and with the pandemic, and just all of it is scary and I wanna just use my voice to say that and validate that for people. 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.comExperience more abundance on georgianbenta.com/abundanceAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
