Can gratitude really change your brain, protect your heart, and anchor your faith in the middle of real-life storms?
In this episode of Vital Voices, we explore “The Science and Spirituality of Gratitude” with Dr. Paige Burrows—physician turned Certified Lifestyle Medicine Educator, Coach, and founder of WellSpring Lifestyle Group.
Together we unpack the subject of gratitude—what it is and isn't , what the latest studies are saying and how to harness the power of gratitude for our mental and physical and spiritual health.
🔍 In this episode, we explore:
- How gratitude affects the brain, heart, immune system, sleep, and stress levels
- Why gratitude is more than “toxic positivity” and how to practice it honestly in seasons of pain
- The overlap between biblical commands (“give thanks in all circumstances”) and evidence-based psychology
- Practical, realistic ways to build a gratitude routine into a busy life in the Caribbean and beyond
- How gratitude can transform not just your mood, but your relationships, resilience, and walk with God
Whether you’re a Christian longing for deeper spiritual practices, a wellness-minded listener, or someone simply trying to cope with anxiety and overwhelm, this conversation will help you see gratitude as more than a feeling—it’s a tool, a discipline, and a path to healing.
🙏 Question for you:
What is one small thing you’re genuinely grateful for today—right where you are, even if life feels heavy? Share it in the comments. Your gratitude might encourage someone else.

What if joy isn’t a feeling you chase but a daily practice you choose? In this powerful episode of Vital Voices, host Alexis Burrows sits down with author and speaker Kerel Pinder to unpack her new movement and book, Hello Joy. Together they explore how to trade hustle for holy intention, why “obedience over outcome” can reframe success, and the simple, faith-rooted practices that protect joy in real life whether in work, calling, relationships, or rest. Kerel shares the heart behind the Hello Joy Experience, the spiritual battle for your peace, and practical steps listeners can try this week to cultivate resilient joy. If you’re navigating burnout, comparison, or purpose drift, this conversation offers a grounded path back to clarity, community, and Christ-centered hope.
You’ll learn:
- A framework for practicing joy on purpose
- How to spot (and stop) common joy-blockers
- Daily rhythms to align your soul, schedule, and calling
- Why community is essential to sustaining joy
