Who is Gratitude Girl?

During the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, I started practicing daily gratitude as a means of reducing the stress and negativity that had crept into my life. I started by writing daily affirmations and goals into a journal and doing lots of what I call "meditative walking."

Fast forward to a summer day when, as I was walking around my neighborhood, I contemplated the chaotic state of the world. I thought to myself, if only there was something I could do on a larger scale to bring light and hope into the world. Light and hope that I believe are so desperately needed during a time when mental health issues are evident across the U.S. due, in part, to the social isolation that was brought on by the pandemic. As my mind wandered, the idea of Gratitude Girl was born, with the mission of growing gratitude globally and giving back.

Gratitude Girl (G.G.) is not only my alter ego, but it is also a symbolic representation of the gratitude that lives within all of us. When I suit up as G.G., I strive to produce entertaining and educational videos detailing the random things in life that I am grateful for. But most importantly, I aim to inspire YOU to join me in expressing gratitude and in doing kind acts for others! There are several easy ways you can join in:
