Show Notes
If your mind is too loud to hear God right now — this episode is your way back in.
Shay shares the one practice she has used for three years that consistently gets her into the presence of God — even on the most anxious, overwhelming mornings — and backs it up with both Psalm 100:4 and the neuroscience that proves why it works. She introduces two versions of the practice: a simple daily 10-item gratitude list that rewires your brain's default track over time, and a deeper situational practice for specific seasons of setback or struggle in business or marriage.
Thanksgiving isn't just a posture — it's the door. And if you've been wandering around outside the wall, this episode shows you where the gate is.
