In this episode, I go over what I have learned about growth mindset, including what it is, and why it's important to develop one. 

7 points I make about a growth mindset 

1. It is the opposite of a fixed mindset
2. It doesn't mean you will be optimistic all the time 
3. It's knowing mistakes are helpful
4. It's taking ownership of your own toxic traits
5. It doesn't mean you will get everything that you want 
6. It's focusing on what is in your control 
7. It doesn't mean you have to be on all the time (take a break and play!)

7 reasons why it's important to develop one 

1. You need it to live a happier lifestyle
2. You need one to create a successful business 
3. You need one to create a healthy lifestyle
4. You need one to build a healthy marriage and other relationships 
5. You need one to build a healthy family 
6. You need to get things wrong in order to learn 
7. We need it if we are going to make the world a better place

This is an intro to what the Growing Humans Podcast will be about, and some of the beginning of my story that led me to this point in my life journey. In this story, I talk about my struggles as a teacher, especially in my 2nd year, and how my experiences with students with some extreme behaviors began to shift my perspective on how I thought I wanted to parent my own children.
