November is National Gratitude Month, and that makes it a great time to talk about what new research says about gratitude. Host Paula Felps welcomes social media manager Michelle Palmer Jones for a heartfelt conversation about the power of gratitude in everyday life. From personal stories of resilience to emerging research on how gratitude supports mental and physical health, this episode explores how intentional practices can transform our well-being. Paula and Michelle also highlight new studies on gratitude’s impact across generations — including college students and older adults— and invite listeners to share their own gratitude stories for a chance to win Live Happy merch.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How gratitude improves mental health in young adults through tech-based interventions.
- The link between gratitude and increased longevity in older adults.
- How to practice “gratitude in disguise” during difficult times and emotional challenges.
