"Learning Gratitude" with Jacqui Letran

Saturday, September 21, is World Gratitude Day. The benefits of expressing gratitude for our physical and emotional well being are many, but how do children learn gratitude, especially when so many are surrounded by negativity? Jacqui Letran, Author, Speaker, Nurse Practitioner, and Teen Confidence Expert discusses her latest book, Have You Ever Thanked Your Nose, a work geared towards helping young children, and their parents, begin to express appreciation for all that surrounds them. Jacqui's multi-award-winning Words of Wisdom for Teens book series is considered a go-to resource for teens, parents of teens, and anyone working with teens. Jacqui's contact information, socials, and many books, including her new series about gratitude, can be accessed at Your Mind. Your Life.
