This week on WORDS MATTER, Deanna Ley, The Catalytic Coach, shares a Thanksgiving-week message built around one grounding truth:
“Meaning is made in the moments.”
This episode introduces what Deanna calls the MOMENTOUS FIVE — five kinds of moments that help you stay grounded through the holidays and beyond. These moments clear the old stories, soften reactions, and open the door for real gratitude in real life.
What Listeners Will Learn:
• Why meaning grows inside real moments, not imagined stories
• How to notice the small, steady moments you usually overlook
• How to step out of old patterns and stay present with what is true
• How repair often begins with one soft choice
• Why living in alignment with what matters most creates gratitude that lasts
Memorable Quotes — One From Each of the MOMENTOUS FIVE:
• “What is actually happening right now? And what am I adding on top of it?”
• “Minute Moments are the way gratitude taps you on the shoulder.”
• “You can be grateful for the lesson a moment gave you — even if you wouldn’t want to relive it.”
• “Mending does not mean everything is fixed. It means something has started to shift toward healing.”
• “Matterful Moments are the ones where what you value and how you live begin to match.”
This episode invites you into a lived, grounded form of gratitude — the kind shaped by Mindful Moments, Minute Moments, Meaningful Moments, Mending Moments, and Matterful Moments. When you notice them, the truth of your life comes back into focus, and when you let them matter, they influence the days ahead in ways that make space for gratitude to grow.
Your WORDS MATTER — and your MOMENTS MATTER — because YOU MATTER.
