Julia is passionate about her work with kid-grit ! She is full of energy and has an approach that will draw in your team. Before I retired I prayed to connect with companies that had a vision for schools and a love for the overall growth of a campus. kid-grit is an SEL company that supports wellness in education and I fully support their curriculum, their work, and the heart of the founders !

Julia is an inspirational leader, focused on growing everyone around her and has a heart of gold. Her KIDGRIT curriculums stand out among the most influential works out there especially for school age children, helping build a more in-tune, emotionally aware and resiliant generation. Amazing to work with and super passionate!

      kid-grit is a holistic approach to developing the next generation of mindful leaders. We offer curriculum, mentoring, professional development, wellness/leadership retreats for students and educators. We are committed to a developing and promoting the nourishment of a child's intellect, emotion, and intuitions — along with conditioning his/her body through tasty nutrient-dense food, movement, and breathing. In this way, we can impact the whole child. By developing the mind (mindfulness/mindset), strengthening the body (nutrition/exercise), fueling teamwork and community, and nurturing skills around social media and technology-usage, we will increase students' awareness, connection to others, and commitment to the mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of their growth. www.kid-grit.com Show less
