## Resource

What if the thing overwhelming your kids isn't screens — it's a culture of too much? In this episode, Patrick sits down with Kim John Payne, author of Simplicity Parenting , to explore why children today are exhibiting what used to be considered trauma responses, and what parents can actually do about it. We explore the five causes of childhood overwhelm, why the antidote starts with the parents — not the kids — and how defining "enoughness" for yourself is the most powerful act of social activism a parent can make. 👉🏼 Get the full Listener's Guide here ❤️‍🔥 Free Newsletter & the Chase Club 👋 New to Chasing Excellence?
