Coming to you from the Center for Social Confidence in Portland, Oregon, welcome to shrink for the shy guy, helping men everywhere go from social anxiety to social domination with your host, Dr. Raziz.

Yo, welcome to today's episode of the show.

Today is about gratitude.

Now, if you live in the United States,

tomorrow, as you know, is Thanksgiving,

and the tradition that we have here in the States about Thanksgiving

is you get together and you eat a shit ton of food. That's kind of the tradition that we have here in the States about Thanksgiving is you get together

and then you try to eat more. That's what most people do. So I have a good friend actually who they go

have an early dinner with his wife's family and then they go to his parents' house and they have a

later dinner. They eat again with his family. And he's like this marathon where he kind of paces

himself so we can make it through both dinners. So, you know, that's a, that's an interesting way of celebrating, I suppose, our gratitude and our

blessings around food abundance.

But that's kind of the limit of the tradition.

I guess maybe there's some time with family that people experience.

But that's the core, I think, the idea of Thanksgiving, giving thanks

is extremely valuable. And that's what I want to talk about today. And you don't have to be
