Story
Michele Borba has been a teacher, educational consultant, and parent for 40 years - and she's never been more worried than she is about this current generation of kids. The high-achieving students she talks with every day are more accomplished, better educated, and more privileged than ever before. They're also more stressed, unhappier, and struggling with anxiety, depression, and burnout at younger and younger ages - "we're like pretty packages with nothing inside," said one young teen.

Perfectionism is another obstacle that can stand in the way of moving forward, while failure and imperfections can help us lead a path to a lot more success than imagined.

Publisher's summary
No time to read? Get the main key insights from this summary of Michele Borba’s Thrivers in just a short listen.
A few key insights from Chapter 1:
- Italian pedagogue Loris Malaguzzi founded the Reggio Emilia approach, which was inspired by the collaborative effort among children who helped rebuild that city after World War II. Malaguzzi developed a primary education curriculum that focuses first on growing children’s talents and unique strengths before teaching them academic subjects.
- The Reggio Emilia approach encourages children to figure out solutions to any problems they encounter by themselves, with minimal interference from their teachers. This enables children to grow into who they are, not who their parents and teachers want them to become.
- Wanting children to be good at everything impedes their intellectual growth and introduces stress and anxiety to their lives.
- Smoothing the road in front of your children and rewarding them for crossing it only creates superficial self-esteem that is bound to crack the moment they face a challenge alone.

Haidt has spent his career speaking wisdom and truth into the most difficult landscapes—communities polarized by politics and religion, campuses battling culture wars, and now the perfect storm contributing to a public health emergency for Gen Z.

Story
In The Worst of You, just-wed architects Timo and Nia flee a murder scene, setting in motion a chain reaction of lies and betrayals that threaten to unravel everything they have built together. Twisted and propulsive, this thriller is told from the alternating perspectives of the couple and those close to them on Williwaw Island, each with their own motive to use the outcome of the murder case to their advantage. When a huge storm sweeps up the coast, trapping everyone on tiny Williwaw Island, it’s a race against time—and the elements — to stop the murderer from striking again.
