The Gratitude Advantage: Why Thankfulness Fuels Entrepreneurship

In this illuminating episode of The Grounded Leader, I sit down with the incomparable Laura Mignott—a culture-shaper, master connector, and visionary who leads teams that build unforgettable, high-impact brand experiences. Known for her magnetic presence and her ability to “know everyone,” Laura brings wisdom, humor, and heart to our conversation.

Together, we explore an entrepreneurial superpower that rarely gets the spotlight: gratitude. Far beyond a feel-good concept, gratitude is a strategic lens that transforms how we lead, innovate, and navigate uncertainty. It softens the edges of stress, fuels clarity, and strengthens resilience—while also shaping compassionate teams and emotionally intelligent companies.

Through personal stories and practical reflections, this episode invites you to rethink gratitude not as a “soft skill,” but as a hard-working leadership asset. Whether you’re scaling a business, leading a team, or simply trying to stay grounded in an ever-shifting world, this conversation will show you why thankfulness isn’t a luxury—it’s a competitive advantage.
