As counselors, teachers and homeschool parents always working to lead our children, sometimes it can be difficult to remember the importance of making students feel heard. Sometimes the simple act of pausing to listen is the most powerful form of leadership.

We found a modern-day Amelia working on her visionary skills this summer! She’s embodying the inspiration from the Amelia lesson in the best way. Can’t wait to see what this awesome girl accomplishes in her life. 👩‍✈️

Thanks to an inspiring #homeschool mom for making the Rosie lesson look so good! It's a reminder of our aim to “inspire peace among girls.” It’s so important to teach girls to be a force for peace among her friends. #rosietheriveter #confidence #girlempowerment #graceandgritbox

The month of June was busy for Grace & Grit. We attended a few conferences designed for school counselors and homeschool families, and Heather had the privilege of speaking to educators on the topic of shame. This summer is shaping up to be filled with great new connections.
