About this episode
What if simply saying “thank you”, no matter the circumstance, could fill your life with more blessings and joy? In this episode, Rhonda Britten invites you to practice gratitude as a living, breathing ritual, teaching you how heartfelt thank yous can open doors, connect you to something bigger, and transform even ordinary moments.
In this extra-special episode, I invite you to do something radical yet simple: say thank you for every moment of awareness, every feeling, every ordinary blessing, no matter what shape it takes.
Together, we’ll explore why gratitude isn’t just for good things, but for all moments that invite us back into awareness, connection, and the flow of grace. I share how I say thank you to everything from a deep breath to a pet’s purr, from a parking spot to a canceled appointment, and why these tiny thank yous stitch my day and spirit together.
You'll hear how giving thanks connects you to Source, whatever you call it: God, Spirit, Universe, Light and how gratitude for connection itself ripples into more ease, energy, and courage. We’ll claim each moment with appreciation, amplifying the invitation: “Yes, more of this, please.”
If you tend to overlook the small things or think thank you needs to wait for a big win, this episode is your daily reminder to start, right now, with what’s in front of you, thank you in your breath, your bed, your call, your cat, your life.

Today in Love Notes from Ronda, we're going to do an extra special practice. It's called thank you. Thank you. Today I want you to practice saying thank you to any moment of awareness, any moment of awareness, where you see something, where you feel something, where you experience something to say thank you. Thank you for that moment of awareness. Thank you for waking me up. Thank you. I see it. Thank you. I feel it. Now notice I didn't say thank you for all the good things. I didn't say thank you for all the happiness. I said thank you no matter what it is. I say thank you to anything that feels and I experience it as the flow, right? So if the door is
easy to open, when it might be hard, you know, like might have had a tug on it and then all of a sudden it became easy. I say thank you. When I find a parking spot, I say thank you. When I stop and just have a deep breath, I say thank you. When I pet Jessabelle, I say thank you. When I wake up in the morning, I say thank you and when I go to bed at night, I say thank you. When a call comes in, I say thank you. When I write a check, I say thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Now I'm not sure who you're going to say thank you to. I say thank you to the thing that's larger than me. I call it God for 20 years. I couldn't say the word God. So maybe for you at spirit or universe or energy or light or other or the field source. So many names for the thing that is
larger than us. But when I say thank you to that thing that is larger than me, that I feel comfortable calling God now, I know what I'm saying thank you for is the connection to that thing that is larger than me. And in turn, thank you that I am connected to you. So you and I right here we're connected right now. Thank you. Right now you can take the energy that I am sending off to you. You can feel the energy that I'm gifting you with today. I'm giving you energy right now hearing my voice right now, hearing my voice right now. Take my energy, claim it as yours and say thank you. Thank you. Somebody smiles at you. Thank you. A client cancels and you eat a luster time say thank you.
The sun comes in the window just right say thank you. The shoes are easy to slip on say thank you. You're running the closet to get something to wear and you find your favorite sweater say thank you. When an episode has been released from your favorite for your fever TV show say thank you. Thank the universe for any time your life has a moment of grace of bliss of ease. Thank you. They say claim the moment that you want to repeat. And that's why we market with the thank you. Yes more of this please. Yes more of this please. Yes more of this thing more of this please. Thank you more of this thank you more of this thank you more of this thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you.
Thank you for joining me thank you for being here with me thank you for loving yourself enough to to join me. Thank you for turning love notes from Ronda on today and you and I sharing this moment, this message. Thank you. Thank you for choosing you today. Thank you for choosing you today. Thank you for choosing you today. My friend, you are so well worth it. Wonderful it is. I love being in your ear, talking to you as Jessabel does. I bet you can hear her in the background. She's attempting to get our attention and we're going to say thank you for that too. For her light, for her joy, for her demanding of love, that too I say thank you. So today, practice. Thank you any moment you can. Thank you.
Elevator opens. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Until next time, be fearless. I love you.
