Empower Your Recreation Therapy Spirit with Sown in Grace

by | Feb 17, 2024 | Business Spotlight | 0 comments

At Sown in Grace, Jenna Garrett has cultivated a heartfelt collection of recreation therapy apparel and accessories to enrich, empower, and unite the recreation therapy community. Amidst her journey as a Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist (CTRS) and taking a pause in her career to nurture her family, Jenna recognized a gap in the industry – a lack of expressive and meaningful RT apparel and lanyards. With an unwavering passion for her profession, Jenna founded Sown in Grace on Etsy to offer a variety of products that reflect the spirit of recreation therapy.

Jenna, with six years of dedicated service as a CTRS, appreciates the essence of representation and unity within the recreation therapy community. Through Sown in Grace, she seeks to provide professionals with a means to proudly display their dedication to the field. By creating a selection of thoughtfully designed t-shirts, tumblers, and lanyards, Jenna aims to impart a feeling of belonging and pride that comes with being a part of the recreation therapy profession.

Sown in Grace’s collection of offerings isn’t just about the physical products – it’s about embracing a way of life, a calling, and a community. The carefully crafted designs of their shirts, each thoughtfully created with recreation therapy professionals in mind, are a testament to Jenna’s commitment to excellence and passion for her profession. The tumblers are not just vessels for drinks but rather a symbol of unity, carrying the logo of recreation therapy while supporting sustainable and reusable living.

The lanyards provided by Sown in Grace serve as more than just a means to carry identification – they are tangible representations of the exemplary work and service provided by CTRS professionals. Each product from Sown in Grace is imbued with the spirit and mission of recreation therapy, serving as a source of empowerment for individuals who dedicate their lives to making the world a better place through recreation and therapeutic interventions.

Jenna’s journey into creating Sown in Grace is fueled by her unwavering love for her profession and a desire to contribute to the recreation therapy community even while tending to her family. Through this platform, she provides an opportunity for professionals to express their pride and passion for what they do. Moreover, it offers a chance for individuals to feel connected and supported by a broader community dedicated to enriching the lives of others through recreation therapy.

From the intricate designs to the meaningful symbolism infused into each product, Sown in Grace stands as a testament to Jenna’s commitment to the recreation therapy profession. Whether it’s wearing a t-shirt with a meticulously thought-out design, sipping from a tumbler adorned with the recreation therapy emblem, or displaying identification on a lanyard that embodies the spirit of the profession, Sown in Grace ensures that recreation therapy professionals can carry their dedication with them in both their personal and professional lives.

Jenna’s dedication to the recreation therapy profession is evident in the care she puts into every item offered through Sown in Grace. Her mission is to provide a platform where professionals can find products that not only express their love for recreation therapy but also serve as a reminder of the incredible impact they have on the lives of others. Sown in Grace is more than an Etsy store – it’s a celebration of the ethos, spirit, and heart of recreation therapy.

To explore the beautiful collection offered by Sown in Grace, visit their Etsy store at sowningrace.etsy.com, and be sure to find the perfect piece that resonates with your passion for recreation therapy. Join Jenna in celebrating the power of recreation therapy and wear your dedication with pride.
