I usually invite my professional colleagues, but in this ✨bonus episode✨, you'll hear me chatting with my son, Alex, about the virtues of planning (some might say "control"🤔) vs. agility in the moment.

It's not easy being a parent (or a teenager) when one of us (guess who?) prefers control while the other prefers to think in the moment.

Agility is key to success, but planning has its place too.

Alex and I had a blast hashing this out, and I value his insights, especially when he shares how team sports (or any other group activity that demands quick thinking) can help kids learn the important skill of adaptability.
