Episode Details

When you’re raising an emotionally intense or dysregulated child, gratitude can feel like the last thing on your mind. Between meltdowns, misunderstandings, and moments that leave you feeling worn thin (at best), it’s easy to lose sight of what’s good.

In this heartfelt and hope-filled episode, Jami shares what it looks like to find gratitude right in the middle of the chaos, even when life feels anything but peaceful. Through real stories, faith-based encouragement, and brain-science insights, you’ll discover how small shifts in mindset can calm your heart, strengthen your perspective, and bring peace back to your parenting journey.

Because gratitude doesn’t erase the struggle — it transforms how we move through it.  

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• How to shift from frustration to gratitude when parenting feels hard
• Why gratitude helps calm emotional chaos in both parent and child
• Simple ways to model and nurture thankfulness at home
• How faith and neuroscience work together to bring peace and perspective
