"It was ordinary things that their parents or Great Aunt Sally or teacher did to help instill them a sense of 'who I am' and those became extraordinary when they faced adversity." One mother said, "If I had it all over again, I would have raised him for resilience." "But our kids need more than GPA. They need a different set of knowledge and THRIVERS is trying to give them what else they need." "First of all, you always have some kind of a caring adult champion in your life who refuses to give up on them." "I love telling kids that success is a 4-letter word spelled g-a-i-n." "So you'll find dozens of pieces of science-backed research on really what makes successful peak performers but they're the same traits that also make resilient kids." "Confidence is a strong self-understanding of who you are." "The best way we now know to teach empathy is by role-playing it or in the heat of the moment."  "Outside people are enormously powerful to kids as well." "Repeat what matters most so much so your kids become it!"   What has your story gifted you?
- Hope
"I am so optimistic about all of this even though I see doom and gloom stuff." "All we need to do is just put it under our parenting agenda." "If we get on board with like-minded other moms and dads, teachers, and grandparents, that's what this is all about."   Resources mentioned in the episode:
