Practicing gratitude has definitely gotten me through some dark and difficult times in my life. And it is a significant part of my faith practice. I'm grateful for people who shared life lessons just by being who they are! Some names: Charles, Ilona, Anthony, Evelyn... so many others.
It’s such a powerful emotion and the benefits that come from regular practice - mind, body, spirit - can really transform how you view the world. Thank you for sharing!
I have to ask, is the Evelyn you named the inspiration behind Brave Evelyn?
She is! She was my great aunt (my father’s aunt). Her sister, my grandmother, died in a traffic accident before I was born, so Evelyn decided to fill the role of grandmother in our lives. She moved across the country by herself to start and run a dairy farm, and she taught home economics.

Wow, that's remarkable! It really makes the decision to name your business Brave Evelyn even more meaningful.
