Stop asking “why me?”
About this episode
In this episode, Emma Paige rethinks gratitude by exploring how life's challenges can lead to personal growth and understanding.
Sometimes I feel like looking around your life and saying “wow, I’m so lucky” feels like it skips over the entire plot. The heartbreak. The rejection. The failures. The people who screwed you over. The days you were convinced your life was falling apart… that were actually quietly redirecting it. So in this episode, we’re rethinking gratitude entirely. I’m tracing the dominoes of my own life — from breakups and betrayal to trauma, career setbacks and some truly questionable men—to show you how some of the best things in my life exist because of some of the worst things that ever happened to me. And why asking “why me?” might be keeping you stuck in a story you haven’t gotten far enough away from to understand yet. Because your favorite part of your life might be downstream from the worst day of it. Don’t count your blessings. Trace them.
