The Joy and Gratitude Podcast
”Joy and Gratitude” Through courageous and open hearted conversations, we drive self-reflection, create deeper level connections and provide a supportive community. We help individuals consider the power of choice and shift to the role of creator in all aspects of their lives. Can you live from the inside out? Focus on your inner wisdom and intuition? Beth Mercurio and Nio Queiro had one connection call that they can only describe as electric. From that moment on they knew they were going to collaborate and connect people. In sharing their stories they realized that their separate journey’s led them to understand the power of joy and gratitude and it’s impact on how we choose to live our lives each and every day. By finding joy in the small moments and acknowledging that which we are grateful for we are able to experience the power of presence and rejuvenation.

There are so many gifts that we receive when we slow down. We can no longer keep up with the rat race of life. We need to slow down with intention, to rest and to trust that this slow time will rejuvenate us and allow us to reframe, gain clarity and be even more productive. What can you do to slow yourself down and zoom out?

Nio and Beth talk about the various impacts, both physical and emotional, of self silencing and conflict avoidance. Can we tune into our bodies and understand more about the fears that are holding us back? We explore how we can pause and use our voices to be true to ourselves and better support each other.
Let's experiment in using the power of pause to start a conversation with yourself and try to choose new alternatives.

On this episode Beth and Nio talk about finding your talents/your gifts and sharing them with the world. It takes time to understand and feel comfortable sharing your gifts with others. When we create space and time (start with just twenty minutes) we are able to have more clarity and vision around why we are here and how we can impact others. We also explore the power of leaning into the discomfort and what can happen when we do. Join us in Joy and Gratitude.

Join us in this honest conversation about flow, presence, being in a state of energetic balance and the power of self-reflection.
