Bucket Emptying: Helping Children Be More Courageous with Ebele Bright

On this week’s bucket emptying episode, I am joined by children’s author Ebele Bright (Fly Chico Fly and Shake Ben Shake).

Ebele also founded Announce World to share beautiful stories with both children and adults, inspired by the truths and life lessons she is passing on to her daughters. Her picture books, which encourage deeper conversation with children, are perfect for children aged 3-8, parents, teachers and anyone who has an influence on kids.

In this episode, we explore how we can help our own children feel more courageous, and how storytelling can be a super powerful way to unlock our kids’ inner superhero.

Highlights from this episode:

04:09 - Normalising emotion

08:57 - Turning on the lightbulb
