## Resource

To kick off the year we explore the key components to goal setting and motivation to help set the kids we care about up for success. We talk about why this matters, the common pitfalls and how to put the science into practice in the real world. From building this early in kids to helping the out the teens who are stuck in amotivation. We are so excited to be back and we can't wait to read your reflections, questions and advice. Special thanks to our sponsor Sound Slam for supporting this episode. Sound Slam is a beautiful card game created by two Aussie mums. It combines literacy research with connection and fun to help our kids learn to read. We love the game and think you will too.
