Episode 060: Just Show Up: The Curse of the Participation Award by Angela Bergman with Family Optimized (Entitlement in Children).

Family Optimized, founded by Chris Egan, is a practical toolbox for helping parents solve problems.

In other words, they find people that write about parenting and family-life from a place of experience and share their stories so other people can learn from them—think self-improvement for parents and families.
