We decided to start a podcast about five minutes before we hit record…so this is what you get.

In this first episode of Capacity, we introduce ourselves, talk about why traditional ideas about “discipline” might not be the whole story, and share what nervous systems actually have to do with behavior—for kids and adults.

From running three miles a day to surviving birthday parties to kids making dirt angels at the zoo, we’re breaking down what it really means to regulate (even if you’re not totally sure what that word means yet).

Start paying attention—you might realize you’re doing it all day long.

We’ll explain more next time.
