This weekend, I got so many examples of ways to be grateful for challenges, from personal ones in my relationship to viewing others challenges in groups.

And the thing that kept coming up is, where's the lesson?

Happy Monday, everyone. It's Sophie.

And a D.

We're always looking for new ways to support you,

and we know firsthand how life can get in the way. So we've created five-minute episodes with

motivation from us and our great friends to keep you feeling ignited and inspired no matter what

life throws at you. Welcome to the Ignited Motivation podcast, mini episodes every Monday.

Listen while you brush your teeth. Or on your morning walk. And you'll never miss out on the latest

tips and tricks that are keeping us feeling motivated. The act, the practice, the habit of finding

gratitude is a skill that we hone not as a way to ignore our

challenges, not as a way to be polyanic about what's happening in our lives, not as a tool

to push down or numb

or ignore what we need to show up for in our lives,

but instead to refine the approach and the attitude,

the perception, the motivation,

and the perspective that we have on our lives as we approach all those challenges our strength our resiliency our grit to show up to what we need in life is boldened is strengthened

is fortified by our ability to look inside

and find that strength, find the things that make us who we are, even in the face of those challenges.

That's the true difference between a good week and a bad week. This weekend,

to viewing others challenges in groups. And the thing that kept coming up is, where's the lesson?
