Finding Joy When Gratitude Feels Out of Reach

Thinking of something that you're looking forward to or you're going to treat yourself to can be really helpful to overcome those intense emotions.
Ever wake up and just feel... off? Maybe today isn't a great morning, and your gratitude journal seems more like a chore than a blessing. Kat, the lively host of 'Sober Sunrise', gets it. In this episode, she shares her personal strategies for lifting your spirits when gratitude feels like a distant dream. Instead of forcing yourself to be thankful, Kat suggests planning little joys to look forward to.
It could be as grand as an upcoming wedding or as simple as a relaxing face mask after work. The key is to have something that sparks a bit of excitement in your day. Kat dives into how this technique has worked wonders for her on those tough days. She encourages listeners to think about what makes them happy and to sprinkle these moments throughout their week.
By shifting focus from what's missing to what's coming, you can turn a gloomy day into a brighter one. This episode is perfect for anyone feeling stuck in a rut or needing a pick-me-up. Kat's warm, conversational style makes it feel like you're chatting with a friend who truly understands. Tune in and find out how small, joyful plans can make a big difference in your mood and overall well-being.
