This week, Athena & Mims kick off a new mini-series, The Feedback Mirror—how to give, receive, and use feedback at home without turning it into criticism or performance reviews. They unpack why feedback matters (growth over perfection), share real-life wins and flops from rushed mornings, and offer simple ways to invite your kids’ voices—think quick car-ride reflections and the “paper-plate quadrant” activity. You’ll hear how to anchor feedback to family values, ask better questions, and model grace when you miss the mark.

Takeaways

• Feedback ≠ criticism: tie it to values, not comparison.

• Keep it frequent, light, and two-way—kids’ reactions are feedback, too.

• Try fast tools: “glows & grows,” daily debriefs, paper-plate check-ins.
