Gratitude shouldn’t require pretending everything is good.
I’m Conrad Deas, and Lead With Gratitude is about honest conversations and ridiculously simple practices for noticing what’s good, helpful, meaningful, and worth appreciating while still telling the truth about what’s hard.
Listen on Apple PodcastsSome things genuinely suck.
Gratitude doesn’t make those things disappear, and it shouldn’t ask us to act like they do.
Sometimes the hard thing is absolutely true. It’s just not the only thing that’s true.
Through honest stories, meaningful conversations, and ridiculously simple gratitude practices, we’ll explore how to notice more of the whole truth: what’s hard, what’s good, and all the stuff we somehow overlook in between.
Because finding something good doesn’t require pretending everything is good.
