It’s more than saying just thank you | Alicia Ann Wade | TEDxSt Marys College Youth

Gratitude isn’t just a polite response, it’s a way of life. In this talk, Alicia Ann Wade, known as Dr. Gratitude, shares her journey of turning hardship into hope through the power of gratitude. From living out of a travel bag to creating a yellow “gratitude car” that connects strangers, Alicia reveals how gratitude transforms not only our mindset but our entire experience of life. This isn’t about checklists or clichés, it’s about learning to live, breathe, and embody gratitude every single day. Alicia lives and breathes gratitude, wellbeing, and positive psychology, but not in a surface-level way. In her deeply reflective talk, she redefines gratitude as a way of living that can ground us in the present, help us recover from pain, and guide us toward hope. Using personal stories—like how her car became a daily gratitude reminder—and a live meditation, Alicia takes the audience on a journey through the emotional, psychological, and healing power of thankfulness. Her talk is a heartfelt invitation to live awake, aware, and appreciative of the life we have. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
