Episode Summary
This week we jump write in with a Telegram share from a listener about shrinking your brain by complaining! JR brings up an interesting read on how things designed to help, have the opposite effect and that rolls right into getting famous, online platforms and helping others. Molly closes the show with reflections on see-saws (teeter-totters or teeterboards) and their correlation to helping kids building empathy for other kids. Join us around our digital table!
