In this highly energising episode, I sit down with Joel Zuckerman, author of the new book Gratitude Tiger and a passionate advocate for the power of gratitude.
I’ve been a some-time gratitude journaller for a while and I’ve known about the power of gratitude for a long time.
Joel has taken this to another level, having written over 280 gratitude letters in a process that started as a one-off and has become the defining theme of his professional life.
Joel reveals how building a gratitude writing habit doesn’t need you to have great skill, but can be as simple as a few heartfelt sentences. He introduces the philosophy behind his acronym "TIGER" (Tapping Into Gratitude Engenders Rewards) and offers actionable advice for cultivating meaningful connections both personally and professionally.
We talk:
- The transformative power of simple acts of gratitude
- The "Seven paragraphs, seven sentences, seven words" philosophy explained
- Practical tips for expressing gratitude in the workplace
- Joel's journey from golf writing to gratitude advocacy
- The emotional impact of handwritten notes and letters
