Can One Thankful Thought Rewire Your Entire Brain?
In this episode of Friday Feelings, we explore the life-changing power of gratitude. Jenelle is joined by guest Nick Venturella, musician, marketer, father, and creator of the Grow Loop Journal, for an honest and inspiring conversation about how gratitude transforms our mindset, builds resilience, and reshapes how we experience life’s hardest moments.
Together, Jenelle and Nick unpack how gratitude works at the level of the brain and body, why it’s a practice (not just a feeling), and how it can be cultivated even in seasons of loss, uncertainty, and survival mode. You’ll hear practical ways to begin building a gratitude habit whether through journaling, breathwork, relationships, or reframing your toughest experiences.
This conversation will leave you encouraged, empowered, and ready to embrace one of the most profound tools for emotional intelligence and life transformation: gratitude.
