Ep. 42 - The Science of Gratitude: How It Boosts Your Praxis® Score, Reduces Test Anxiety, and Improves Study Performance

Melanie Y. Evans, MS CCC-SLP — Thu, 27 Nov 2025 14:10:00 -0800

In today’s bite-sized, heart-centered episode, we’re diving into something that seems simple… but is scientifically proven to transform your Praxis® experience:

👉 Gratitude.

If you’ve ever dealt with test anxiety, distractions, self-doubt, or study burnout — this episode explains why gratitude is one of the fastest ways to boost:

memory
focus
confidence
emotional regulation
AND your Praxis® test performance

You’ll learn the neuroscience behind gratitude, why it matters specifically for SLP graduate students, and a 2-minute method you can start using TONIGHT to calm your mind and improve your recall for exam day.

Plus, I share real case studies from students who used gratitude + mindset techniques to increase their scores — some by 45+ points.

This is the perfect Thanksgiving week reset… and the perfect strategy to carry into your Praxis® prep.
