Instead of feeling grateful these holidays, your brain may be on overdrive with worries about work, that fight with your BFF, and counting the calories in your favorite empanadas…

But let’s face it, are your woes really worth the agony? It’s time to tell your inner critic to take a hike! 

Besides, look at how much worse things could be…

At least your cool weather dare didn’t give you unexpected bruises 👀 that’s something to be grateful for 😅

And we know you’re too smart to toss your stinky trash like this 🤭
