The Gratitude Shift

Transform your life through twenty-six gratitude practices—one for each letter of the alphabet—designed to spark positive change in your daily life and help you feel more thankful every day.

The Gratitude Shift offers a fresh, modern approach to gratitude that moves beyond clichés and into practical,  approachable advice readers can use in real life. Built around twenty-six actionable practices, one for each letter of the alphabet, the book’s A-to-Z structure makes it easy to jump in anywhere, revisit often, and use whenever a mindset reset is needed.

Each chapter offers a focused gratitude concept through a compelling pull quote with the author''s guidance woven throughout, followed by a real-world story from an accomplished guest.  Readers are introduced to clear, thoughtful guidance that guides them through how to apply each idea. Every chapter concludes with an interactive element such as an exercise, quiz, or reflective prompt to help turn insight into action.

Written by wellness expert and media personality, Jamie Hess, host of the Gratitudeology™ podcast, The Gratitude Shift reflects both professional expertise and lived experience. After overcoming addiction, Jamie rebuilt her life by applying the gratitude-centered principles that form the foundation of this book, leading to a successful career working with major brands and regular national media appearances.

Accessible and results-focused, The Gratitude Shift positions gratitude as an active tool for resilience, confidence, leadership, and emotional strength. This is a gratitude guide readers can return to again and again, with practices that feel relevant, empowering, and achievable.
