Help Kids Discover What They Value

About this episode

This episode discusses the importance of families exploring values together to align actions and words.

“Actions may speak louder than words," writes the researcher Angela Duckworth, "but actions and words together send the clearest message of all.” In this episode, Michelle Larson, marriage and family therapist associate, and Amanda Suarez, school psychologist, talk about why it's so essential for families to explore values together. When we talk about what's most important to us, we make it easier to live aligned with those values.
