This week I attended a conference where the conversation centered around childhood literacy, declining reading scores, shrinking attention spans, and the growing influence of screens.
I agreed with every bit of it.
But I couldn't stop asking a different question...
What are we programming our children with when they do read?
Because children don't just learn from books.
They learn from the stories we tell.
The stories we live.
The emotions we model
The relationships they witness.
The patterns they experience every single day.
In this episode, we explore:
Why the first eight years of life matter so much
How repeated experiences shape the subconscious mind
Why stories become emotional blueprints
The connection between childhood programming and adult patterns
Why I wrote Courage Finds His Calm
How awareness allows us to interrupt patterns before we pass them on
Whether you're raising children, working with children, or simply trying to understand yourself a little better, this conversation is ultimately about the stories that shape us all.
Because children are always reading something.
And awareness gives us the opportunity to become more intentional about what they're learning.
You're not broken. You're patterned. And patterns can be changed.
