Summary
What if the most powerful thing you could do for your child's confidence takes less than five minutes a day?
In this short episode, we revisit a conversation with mindset coach Mark England that sparked something big β the idea of a wins journal β and we explore how one simple question before bed can reshape the story your kids tell themselves about who they are.
We dive into why most of us have a black belt in dismissing our own accomplishments and how that pattern gets passed down to our children. Learn how replacing "what went wrong today" with "what went right today" connects to the Awareness β Intention β Action framework, and hear a full reading of Patrick's new children's book What's a Win I Won Today? β written to give families a way into the conversations that actually matter.

| 0:52.7 | Well, actually, I should say we've had them on the show a whole bunch. |
| 0:54.1 | We had them on relatively recently. But specifically a year ago, we had him on the show. And that's what I want to talk to you |
| 1:00.1 | about today. First, though, Mark is the co-founder and head coach of a company called Enlifted, |

| 1:10.0 | being one of those episodes that I've |
| 1:11.7 | thought about long after. We recorded it. So the central idea was this. The reason we had him on |
| 1:17.0 | the show that particular week is he was making the argument that the most common pre-workout |
| 1:22.4 | in the fitness industry, the thing that gets more people in the gym than nearly anything else. |
| 1:28.1 | It's not a supplement. It's fear. It's specifically the fear of not being good enough. |
