Why This Matters
As we step into a new year, radio leaders are encountering audiences that are not looking for polished positivity; they’re looking for songs that meet them honestly where they are.
The recent 55 Promotion blog encourages leaning into gratitude even when life hands lemons; not glossing over hardship, but choosing to be thankful in tension. “Thankful” models exactly that posture: gratitude without pretense.
