#336 The Gratitude Tiger – with Joel Zuckerman

In this highly energising episode, I sit down with Joel Zuckerman, author of the new book Gratitude Tiger and a passionate advocate for the power of gratitude.

I’ve been a some-time gratitude journaller for a while and I’ve known about the power of gratitude for a long time.

Joel has taken this to another level, having written over 280 gratitude letters in a process that started as a one-off and has become the defining theme of his professional life. 

Joel reveals how building a gratitude writing habit doesn’t need you to have great skill, but can be as simple as a few heartfelt sentences. He introduces the philosophy behind his acronym “TIGER” (Tapping Into Gratitude Engenders Rewards) and offers actionable advice for cultivating meaningful connections both personally and professionally.

We talk:

  • The transformative power of simple acts of gratitude
  • The “Seven paragraphs, seven sentences, seven words” philosophy explained
  • Practical tips for expressing gratitude in the workplace
  • Joel’s journey from golf writing to gratitude advocacy
  • The emotional impact of handwritten notes and letters
