Is This Really About Gratitude or Emotions?

Описание: In this first episode of Think About Your Thinking, Lisa and Zuica dive into the connection between emotional dysregulation and gratitude. What starts as a simple reflection on reminding others to “be grateful” unfolds into a deeper conversation about emotional awareness, regulation, and how we pick up on discomfort in ourselves and others. Together, they explore how emotional reactions—especially when they feel out of proportion—can offer important clues about what’s really going on beneath the surface, and how gratitude can become a tool for grounding and perspective rather than a dismissive response.
