Hi, I am Karla Garjaka, a bestselling author, international speaker, and the founder of Foundation Matters, a nonprofit dedicated to revolutionizing mental health, and Globally Brighter, which empowers children and families through her gut-brain-heart methodology. With nearly 30 years of experience, I help children thrive academically, socially, and emotionally by integrating emotional literacy as the foundation for lifelong success. “Emotional literacy isn’t just an educational tool; it’s the key to unlocking a child’s fullest potential.” My science-backed approach focuses on six core pillars: Breathing, Rest, Eating Nutritional Foods, Active Mind and Body, Thankfulness, and Hydration (BREATH). On a mission to empower children and families around the world, My transformative work is reshaping families and communities through workshops, consultations, and my bestselling books.
Imagine a world where every child faces life’s challenges with resilience and compassion. “The ABCD of Emotional Literacy Course” brings this vision to life, offering parents, teachers, and caregivers a simple, powerful tool to build emotional intelligence from the earliest years.
Today, more than ever, students, parents and educators need support in developing social and emotional skills alongside academic skills.
63%, of parents report feeling unprepared or unsure how to effectively teach their children about emotions.
60% of kids feel their parents are sometimes too distracted to listen when they want to talk
Research shows that children who develop emotional literacy skills thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. By teaching these skills early, you’re not just helping your child—you’re reshaping the future of emotional health, one child at a time.
Through years of rigorous research, I’ve uncovered a profound link between emotional literacy and academic achievement. My extensive studies into the growing academic struggles of children revealed a clear correlation with emotional intelligence (EQ). This groundbreaking discovery led me to a crucial conclusion: if we want our children to thrive not only academically but also socially and emotionally, Emotionally Literacy is a MUST HAVE!
