How to Stop Living in Fight or Flight and Start Living in Gratitude

Recorded on Halloween night (makeup and all!), Lexi sits down for a heartfelt solo episode about gratitude, empathy, and returning to the basics of human kindness. As the season shifts from spooky to thankful, she reminds us that gratitude isn’t just for Thanksgiving — it’s a daily mindset that rewires your brain and transforms your reality.

Drawing from her faith and recent real-life experiences, Lexi shares a humbling story about being prompted to help someone in need and how it deepened her understanding of compassion, selflessness, and listening to divine guidance. She challenges listeners to show up for others, practice gratitude in action, and embrace kindness as a core value — not a political stance.

Whether you believe in God, the universe, or simply good energy, this episode is a warm reminder that what you give out comes back — and that the smallest act of love can change a life.
