09/12/22 • 20 min

Sophia recently went to Siberia to visit her grandparents, who she has not seen in a long time. Needless to say, it was a fun and exciting experience to catch up with them, and amid this adventure, Sophia had the opportunity to join a trail race. As it was something she had never done before, Sophia was very hesitant and nervous; she was scared that she will fall and get hurt. She just wanted to quit before even starting.

In this episode, Sophia shares the 3 important lessons she learned about herself when she finally got the courage to face her fear and join the trail race. She even won third place in the race, and was very happy that she conquered her fear.

Our challenge to you big dreamers is to play a running game called the Bag Game with your friends and family. It's so much fun, and it will motivate you to get moving. Listen to this week's episode to learn more. Enjoy!

DB 321: Little Kids’ Guide to BIG Emotions

This week, Sophia and Olga talk about the eight primary built-in emotions that we all feel, and how Sophia experienced and dealt with them all when she travelled for four days to Siberia a few weeks ago.

While preparing for this episode, Sophia and Olga came across a very informative book entitled Exploring Emotions by Paul Christelis. This book is the perfect way to teach the young big dreamers about dealing with different emotions, what "inner weathers" are, and the importance of acknowledging our emotions. The book is so insightful that Sophia and Olga are doing something that's never been done before in this podcast: read a book. You can listen to the book on YouTube by heading over to this link and purchase Paul's book on Amazon here.

Our challenge for you this week will be based on Paul's book. We would like you to check your personal weather report, be mindful of your emotions and make it a habit to share them with your family every night. Discuss it.
