OTT 267: Gratitude Without the Guilt: Projects That Actually Matter

Tired of being told to “just be grateful” while you’re juggling a crowded class, endless testing, and a to-do list that never ends? We open up about gratitude without the guilt—how to honor real exhaustion and real care at the same time—so you can model emotional health without faking it. Instead of platitudes, we break down the difference between a scarcity mindset and actual scarcity in schools, and why empathy—not forced positivity—is the thing that helps.
