Gratitude Practices for High-Achieving Women with Lainie Rowell

Gratitude Practices for High-Achieving Women with Lainie Rowell

Do you deflect compliments, feel the urge to repay every kind word ten times over, or keep a gratitude list that reads the same every night? This episode is for you.

Casey sits down with bestselling author, TEDx speaker, and award-winning educator Lainie Rowell. Lainie was in the room when Steve Jobs launched the iPhone, has been called "very gritty" by Angela Duckworth, and proudly owns the title of exceptionally loud clapper. Together, they explore how gratitude helps high-achieving, impact-driven women show up with more clarity and confidence, even when life feels hard.

In this episode, you'll discover:

  1. The two-part social science definition of gratitude and what it takes to build a grateful disposition
  2. A four-step deep gratitude practice, plus a better way to channel that "I owe you" feeling
  3. The "what if" exercise Lainie walks Casey through live, and how it helped Lainie move toward forgiveness
  4. The ratio Lainie says could make the world a better place, and why it matters most with the people you're in friction with

Keep a pen nearby. You'll want to try the live exercise along with Casey.
