Children's antidote to boredom, how one monster changed the World
This week on the Leader’s Edge Ernie and I want to introduce to you, Miss Jessie Terry. Why wait until you're an adult to learn the necessary skills you need to be an effective leader? When Jessie was a little girl, she had a huge imagination, if she was not sailing the ocean fighting pirates, she would be a mermaid with fairy wings who could speak to animals. God gave her a big imagination for a reason! This amazing young entrepreneur is the author and illustrator of more than 21 children's books and creator of “Ebenezer's Journey,” a 52-week curriculum course designed for elementary-aged children that teach Character Development and Leadership skills. When Jessie was a young child, she heard a calling from God that she would be a voice for children, and since that moment she has dedicated her life to serving children. Her mission in life is to “knock out boredom and bring back the power of imagination” to children...Jessie, with the help of her friends on “Ebenezer 's Journey” will do just that. Jessie a dynamic leader, is a freelance artist and international traveler, model, and hails as the reigning National American Miss Arkansas 2022. She is a certified Maxwell leadership speaker and coach and is certified in women's self-defense as an instructor. If you're a parent, you know, one of the most important gifts you can give to your child is helping them establish their character, the values that make them leaders in life. But how do you teach these important character values, things like kindness, gentleness, goodness, respect, and discipline to young children in a manner that they can understand? That's where Ebenezer and friends can help! Lean in and listen as we interview Jessie Terry and learn more about Ebenezer and his friends.
