Care ❤ U's latest episode: In this episode, we’re joined by Matt Thomann, creator of the Resilient Parents Playbook, to explore how the messages we send as caregivers shape our children more than we may realize. Through the lens of sports, this conversation opens up something bigger. How often are we focusing on things kids cannot control, and what impact does that have on their confidence, anxiety, and motivation? Matt introduces a simple but powerful idea. Shift the focus to what kids can control, like their attitude, communication, and effort. We reflect on how small changes in our conversations can create lasting impact, not just in sports, but in life. We hope you enjoy the episode.
