Have you ever told yourself you should “just be grateful” for what you have? On the surface it sounds positive — even virtuous — but there’s a hidden cost to gratitude when it becomes a muzzle. In this episode, I’m talking about the quiet guilt that can keep you stuck in situations that don’t truly make you happy, and why being grateful and wanting change can absolutely coexist.
I share the childhood moment that planted this belief in me, how it’s shown up in my life and business, and why so many women internalise the idea that ambition is selfish or disruptive. We’ll explore the difference between appreciating your life and settling for it, and how to tell if you’re genuinely content or simply convincing yourself you should be. You’ll learn ways to reframe your ambition as self-respect, recognise when you’re making decisions out of obligation instead of alignment, and start creating space for the life and business you actually want.
This is your permission slip to stop shrinking yourself in the name of gratitude and start being unapologetic about your desires. You can deeply appreciate what you have and still want more — that’s not greed, it’s growth.
✨ You don’t have to settle to be grateful — the two can exist together, and that’s where your power lies.
