WOW (wisdom, or whatever)

WOW is a set of 99 ready-to-run conversations for a parent to have with their kids — the stuff that matters but somehow never gets its own time: friendship, money, resilience, kindness, tough situations, and more.

Life doesn't come with a manual, so WOW is one family's attempt at writing a few pages of it — real conversations we kept meaning to have, turned into something short enough to actually run.

HOW A SESSION WORKS Pick a topic (or tap "surprise me"). Read two minutes of prep notes — a question to open with, one idea worth slowing down on, a few things to ask, a line to land at the end. Then run it: about 15 minutes, slides on a screen the kids can see, notes on your phone where only you can see them.

WHAT'S INSIDE 99 topics across relationships, money, resilience, character, wisdom, tough situations, digital life, health, school, communication, and self-awareness — from making small talk and spotting a scam, to handling a bad grade, apologizing well, and what to do when a friend tells you something serious.

BUILT FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY Most kids around 8 and up get something out of it, and younger ones are welcome to sit in and listen. A few topics go into heavier territory — grief, bullying, being falsely accused — so it's worth reading a topic's prep notes yourself first. These sessions are one family's take, not professional guidance — if something's actually happening in your family, please reach out to a real counselor or therapist.
