In this emotionally grounding episode of Gratitude Geek, Kandas Rodarte welcomes back author and mindset coach Fletcher Ellingson to explore how we can build emotional resilience in a world that feels increasingly chaotic.
We dive into Fletcher’s signature framework from his book The Practice of Feeling Good — and unpack how fear is often just a story. Fletcher shares how to identify the root of that fear, reframe it, and begin practicing a new, empowering narrative. You’ll also learn why “feeling good” is a daily practice, not a personality trait or privilege.
Whether you’re facing uncertainty in business, health, politics, or life, this episode will help you reset your emotional default and take aligned action from a place of clarity and confidence.
Topics Covered:
- The 3 core fears driving most anxiety
- Why fear is just a future-based story
- How to practice emotional resilience daily
- The difference between habits and intentional practices
- Why courage is only possible with fear
- How to shift your mindset to feel grounded and empowered
- Simple tools to regulate your nervous system
- Gratitude as a radical act of self-regulation
- Flexibility vs. rigidity in emotional survival
