Without fear, failure can be fun, fantastic, and fresh!

If you find that there are just some things you or your child don’t want to return to after the pandemic is over, here’s how to handle what comes next.

Self-awareness allows us to identify the aspects of ourselves that manifest in our work, school, and families.

There’s a lot of information out there for parents about how to navigate the physical and mental changes that kids go through, but sometimes we feel left in the dark when it comes to how kids grow emotionally.

It can be difficult for parents when kids start to have disagreements with their friends or feel left out of social situations.

Mindset is an important way for kids to build resilience. Having a flexible mindset means that kids are able to learn and grow from setbacks rather than internalize failure as an issue of self-worth.

Thinking about goals in a bigger way contributes to kids' ability to have a flexible mindset about their successes, allowing them to deal with failure in a productive way.

Pressure to succeed; pressure to be brilliant, to be perfect and constantly on; pressure to keep pushing, and to immediately and unreflectively get back up- no matter how painful the fall. Does this sound familiar? 

Research shows that the most effective people reach success AFTER pursuing other endeavors first. 

Kids can't succeed in school without succeeding in life. Building resilience and coping skills means making social emotional learning as important as academic achievement.

Building an Activities Box focuses your child’s attention on their current and future goals.

Everything from a school snow day the same day as the Valentine’s party or a cancelled vacation due to a death in the family can bring up intense feelings.

We set out to discover what it is that parents and teachers need to help students build healthy social, emotional, leadership, and coping skills. Our answer? They need the right words to evoke powerful conversations.
