Growing Grateful Hearts, with Jennifer Sakata

Gratitude isn’t just a nice idea, it’s a powerful habit that can transform your family, your outlook, and even your brain.


In today’s episode of Little Shoots Deep Roots, we dive into how practicing intentional gratitude (whether through simple daily lists or creative family rituals) truly reframes challenges and brings us closer to God and one another. The real magic happens when these small acts are modeled and repeated, turning thankfulness into a defining quality of your life and leadership.


Start simply, keep it real, and watch gratitude seep out of you and inspire those around you.


✨ In this episode:

  • Why gratitude matters for your child’s spirit, brain, and relationships

  • Real-life family struggles—plus hope for progress (not perfection!)

  • Brain science and faith: how God designed gratitude to shape us

  • A creative “thanks living calendar” tradition to try in your own home

  • Tips for modeling and teaching gratitude, even when kids resist

  • How grace and gratitude team up to reframe hard moments
