The Power of Gratitude: Building Resilience and Confidence in Youth
In this episode of The Mentorship Blueprint, Mark is joined by mentor Nathan Shiya for an inspiring conversation about the power of gratitude in mentoring.
Nathan shares how gratitude has shaped his own life and how it’s become a cornerstone of his relationship with his mentee. From simple practices like letter writing and reframing challenges to moments of connection through activities like rock climbing, Nathan shows how gratitude can deepen trust and open new perspectives for youth.
Together, Mark and Nathan explore how cultivating an appreciative mindset helps young people build confidence, resilience, and self-trust—and how mentors can model this practice in small, everyday ways.
This episode is a reminder that gratitude isn’t just a feeling; it’s a practice that transforms relationships, one moment at a time.
