✨ “It is not happiness that makes us grateful. It is gratefulness that makes us happy.” —Brother David Steindl-Rast

So often we chase happiness, thinking it’s something to find or earn, but true happiness begins with gratitude. 💛

When we slow down and notice what’s already good in our lives, the small moments, the people who love us, the lessons we’ve learned, we naturally cultivate more joy, peace, and abundance.

Gratitude is a mindset, not a mood.
It’s how we Journey Forward toward a life filled with purpose and fulfillment. 🌱

Do you ever feel like the world is just too much right now? 😔
We’re surrounded by negativity from the moment we wake up to when we go to sleep, and it can be overwhelming.

But here’s the truth:
You can’t control what’s happening around you.
You can choose where you place your attention. 💫

In this week’s episode of Journey Forward with Joree Rose, I’m diving into how to practice real gratitude - the kind that helps you heal and stay grounded, without slipping into toxic positivity.

Because gratitude isn’t about pretending life is perfect.
It’s about making space for both the good and the hard, and choosing to move forward with intention and grace. 🌱

Are you constantly saying “yes” when you really mean “no”?
Do you find yourself avoiding conflict just to keep the peace even if it costs you your own?

If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone. ❤️

In Part 2 of our How to Break the People Pleasing Trap series, Dr. John Schinnerer and I dive deep into two of the biggest emotional blocks that keep us stuck in self-sacrifice:

💥 Conflict avoidance >> where “keeping the peace” turns into quiet resentment
💔 The fear of being alone >> that whisper that says, “If I stop pleasing, will anyone stay?”

Here’s the truth:
Avoiding conflict doesn’t create peace. It creates silent suffering.
And real love isn’t built on people pleasing… it’s built on authenticity.

This is your gentle reminder that:
✨ You’re allowed to have needs.
✨ You’re allowed to take up space.
✨ You’re allowed to be seen: fully, honestly, and unapologetically.

If you’re ready to start showing up as your real self (and build relationships that honor who you are), this post is for you. And if this resonates, drop a ❤️ in the comments! 👇🏻

You are worthy of a life that includes you. 💫

Gratitude isn’t just for Thanksgiving. It’s a daily mindset shift that can transform how we show up in our lives. 💛

In this week’s Journey Forward with Joree Rose episode, I’m diving into how to cultivate a true gratitude practice without falling into the trap of toxic positivity.

I’m also sharing a little behind-the-scenes of my book, A Year of Gratitude, and how it helped me embody thankfulness during one of the hardest times in our lives.

If you’ve ever struggled with staying positive when life feels heavy, this episode will give you gentle, grounded tools to help you practice gratitude in a real and authentic way. 🌿

🎧 If you get stuck not being kind to yourself, the current podcast episode of Journey Forward with Joree Rose - Stop the Spiral: Real-Time Tools for Self-Compassion and Boundariesis - for you!

Ever catch yourself stuck in a spiral of self-criticism? That harsh inner voice telling you you’re not enough? In this week’s episode, I dive into how to stop that spiral and reconnect with kindness, compassion, and understanding, especially toward yourself. 💛

Here’s a powerful truth:

“Studies show that motivation through punishment, coercion, and shame is short-lived compared to motivation through kindness, support, and curiosity.”

What if that critical voice in your head isn’t even yours? Maybe it’s a reflection of someone else’s expectations or judgments. It’s time to get curious, quiet that critic, and choose compassion instead. 🌸

🎙️ Tune in to Episode 249 to learn practical, real-time tools to shift your mindset, set healthy boundaries, and move toward healing.

Healing starts with safety, and grows through partnership. 🌿
When you Journey Forward, therapy isn’t about fixing you: it’s about walking with you as you learn, grow, and move toward the life you deserve.

Here’s what one client shared about their experience:

“Joree helps me feel safe, like I can bring my authentic self and be open no matter what. She responds in ways to help me figure out where I’m stuck and how to move forward. Our work together feels like partnership, like teamwork. She gives me the tools that I can take with me that will help me with any situation. Joree cares for my best interest and brings so much knowledge regarding mindfulness; I’m always learning and improving how to be authentic. I’m grateful for how Joree brings a human experience to her work.”

When you feel supported, real change becomes possible. 💫
