EAP 77: A KID on the RUN - Blazing a TRAIL, Winning the RACE & Achieving HARMONY

Summary: On this episode of the Early Accountability Podcast, Kimi has a very special guest who is wise beyond her years. Harmony is a rising 6th grader who is involved in Girl Scouts, Girls on the Run, running club, soccer, and robotics club in addition to being voted 5th grade Class Mayor and keeping her grades up. In order to become Class Mayor, she had to write and deliver a speech in every class and then be elected by her peers to represent them in venues like Business Town. Her commitment to learning new things and improving herself through all of these extracurricular activities is admirable for someone her age, and she shares with listeners her guiding principles in rocking her goals. • Make the time for what you want to do, but don’t be too upset if you have to miss something sometimes. • Take a break to rejuvenate between activities. • Prioritize the activities that are really important to you and then see what else you can fit in. • When you are nervous about something, put in the effort to practice and do your best. • Pay attention in school and focus on your work. Harmony’s mantra is one we could all integrate into our daily lives: You got this. Focus, try your best, and don’t worry what other people think. Topics Covered in this Episode: • Prioritizing what is important • Having good boundaries • Being confident even when you are nervous • Focusing on school and activities
