Be Grateful, beAwesome with Tara Gettles (2021)

March 29, 2022 • Season 2 • Episode 9

Ever wonder how you might teach a child about gratitude? Yeah? Well, listen in!

Welcome to our last conversation for Women's History Month where we celebrate the incredible and often-overlooked contributions of women to our countrys history. Just like every episode this month, it's an opportunity for us to choose to honor strong and grateful women that have been part of The Gratitude Spark Podcast.

Today we are jumping back to Episode 13 which was recorded in April of 2021. It was an amazing conversation with Tara Gettles who, along with her French Bulldog named Awesome Butch, has put together a pretty amazing journal for kids. She talks about what it means to Be Grateful and to Be Awesome.

On today's episode, we are chatting with Tara Gettles, and we couldn't be more excited to share the project she's been working on.

Tara and her French Bulldog "Awesome Butch" have teamed up to end bullying and bring a practice of gratitude to children in their developmental years.

She decided to use the mindfulness practices that work for her colleagues in their professional life and simplify the process to give children an early start on this journey. To that end, Tara created the beAwesome Journal which is a seasonal, quarterly gratitude journal designed to help children develop daily positive mindset rituals. This simple and fun journal provides instruction and encourages children to begin each day with a grateful heart, growth mindset, and awesome intentions.

Listen as Tara and Awesome Butch tell us how the beAwesome Journal was created and what they are doing to create am attitude of gratitude in the very early years.

You can find Tara's beAwesome Journals on Amazon and learn more about what she is doing by visiting her Facebook page called "Be Awesome Journal" (https://www.facebook.com/beawesomejournal).
