Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you’re enjoying a relaxing and delicious holiday with those you love most.
My (lofty) goal is to express gratitude every single day—for my family, for my health, for work that I enjoy—but let’s be real; that’s not how I spend every waking moment of my life.
(Is that how any of us spend every waking moment of our life?)
Things get in the way—things like traffic and client invoices and preschool pickup—and it’s easy to forget to take time for a simple gratitude practice. Sometimes, we don’t even forget—we just don’t have the time or the energy!
That’s why I appreciate Thanksgiving. I appreciate being given the explicit opportunity to take a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and just be thankful for what I have.
This year, I’m particularly thankful for:
- The good health of everyone I love
- A business I still enjoy after nearly a decade
- Time spent with my beautiful family
- Quiet evenings at home talking to my husband
- And a beautiful office that is light and bright, with views as far as the eye can see, to keep me inspired and motivated while I work
And this year, I decided to extend the gratitude invite to my team and find out what they’re most thankful for this holiday season!

“I’m grateful for my incredible support system of friends and family including my husband, Adam and daughter, Charlotte. Every minute I spend with them is a blessing, and a smile from Charlotte makes even the worst day better. Also high on my list is the good health of my family including my parents and grandfather, who I can’t wait to see for the holidays. Finally, I’m grateful to have a job I love, working with the best clients and team members, especially the ladies at Jeneration PR!” – Jenny Heller, Account Executive
“I’m thankful for my uber-supportive husband and my pup, Teigen, as well as work opportunities that I’m excited by and passionate about, and coffee and wine—at opposite ends of the day, every day.” – Jenna Arak, Writer & Editor
Good health, great work, even a glass of wine—even though we may not think about it consciously every day, there’s always something to be thankful for….
And here at JPR, we’re truly thankful for you every single day. Enjoy this special day with those you’re grateful for!
