Are we giving kids every opportunity, or are we giving them too much? In this episode of Equipped To Be,  I'm tackling the rising concern that parents quietly wrestle with: Are my kids overscheduled? From soccer games to music lessons, from tutoring to youth group, it's easy to believe that more activities equal success.  But what if a jam-packed calendar is doing more harm than good?  You'll learn the hidden signs that your child might be stretched too thin, how overscheduling impacts their mental and emotional health, and why free play is more powerful than we realize. You'll also walk away with simple, grace-filled strategies to create a more balanced rhythm in your home.  If you've ever felt tension between opportunity and overwhelm, this episode will remind you that less can really be more.   Let's create a childhood that makes space for joy and fun!
