What happens when your child is really good at something—but starts to lose sight of the team around them? In this episode of Ever Wonder, we meet Quinn, a fast and talented football player who scores big… but begins to notice her teammates pulling away.

Through this powerful story, your young lady will learn about humility, empathy, emotional intelligence, and how to balance confidence with kindness. This is a must-listen episode for kids navigating success in sport, school, or hobbies—helping them grow into leaders who lift others up, not just shine on their own.

Parent Conversation Guide
How to Begin the Conversation:

• “What did you think about how Quinn acted after her big game?”
• “Have you ever done something really well and then realised others felt left out?”
• “Do you think it’s possible to be proud and humble at the same time?”
  
  

Key Ideas to Explore with Your Child:

• Humility is a virtue we practice most when things go well. Ask: “What do you think humility means? Why do you think it matters even when we win?”
• Moral character is shaped by how we treat others when we’re at our strongest. Help them reflect: “When you’re doing well, who do you include? Who might feel invisible?”
• Success is sweeter when it’s shared. Ask: “What could Quinn do next time to help her whole team feel proud?”
  
  

How To Help The Message Stick:

• “It’s okay to feel proud—you worked hard! But let’s look around. Who helped you get there?”
• “Being a good sport isn’t just about losing well—it’s also about winning with kindness.”
• “Strong people don’t just lead—they lift others too.”
  
  

How to Model This as a Parent:

• Celebrate others out loud. Make it a habit to say things like, “That was such a great team effort,” or “Did you see how well they worked together?”
• Acknowledge your own achievements with humility. Let them hear you say, “I’m really proud of how that turned out—and I couldn’t have done it without [person].”
• Redirect the spotlight. When your child does well, add, “And how do you think your team helped you?” or “What did you notice others doing well today?”
