From Heartbreak to Gratitude & Kindness - Boomer Perrault (ep. 962)

Описание: Boomer’s journey began after a painful breakup left him searching for purpose. He discovered that helping strangers—whether it’s a smile, a “hello,” or a small deed—could lift his own spirits and even save lives.


During our conversation Boomer drills down into the habits that transformed his mindset:

• Continuous Repetition – swapping negative thoughts for positive ones, dozens of times a day, until the new wiring feels natural.
• Gratitude Journaling – writing down five things he’s thankful for each night to reinforce a grateful outlook.
• Turning Adversity into Growth – seeing every setback as a “blessing in disguise” that fuels personal development and a stronger work ethic.





Whether you’re looking to reboot your mindset, add a weekly kindness habit, or simply feel inspired by a story of turning pain into purpose, this episode is packed with actionable insights and a call to action you won’t want to miss.


Stay tuned, press play, and let’s keep seeking—and spreading—gratitude together. 🎧✨
