1000 Hours Outside Podcast S3E34: Resist the Urge to Overschedule Childhood f
Luis Fernando Llosa co-wrote Beyond Winning with Kim John Payne (Simplicity Parenting) and Scott Lancaster.
What I thought was going to be a book about sports turned out to be a book about life and about parenting and about the narrow ways we sometimes define success.
This podcast includes the world of youth sports that most of us face at some point during our parenting journeys but there is great depth here – both in the podcast and the book – that will leave you with lots of conversation topics and lots to ponder.
We discuss the power of play, boredom, the upcoming job market, the gift of anticipation, peer mentoring, learning for mastery, how to respond to loss and failure, what should define success in childhood and in life, and a lot more.
Beyond Winning went right to the top of my list as a favorite parenting book.
These quotes are a little longer than usual but they’re such good reminders. Share a favorite and if you listen to the episode take a screen shot and share that too!
