Rediscover play and transform your everyday life.
Did you think you were done playing? Think again! Cultivating a playful mindset will help you build empathy, make friends, heal past traumas, make memories with loved ones (including yourself!), and break down the barriers that keep you from connecting with your community and the world around you.
"This book feels like you're having a conversation with two friends while simultaneously learning an immense amount of information in the process. We love the way Jed and Julie's playful candor helps you take in all that you're reading and digest it. And boy did we eat it up. Highly recommend this book to anyone looking to educate themselves on the importance of play, the importance of self, and the importance of the curious world around you."
PJ and Thomas McKay, Bloggers and Influencers, The Property Lovers
"This book expertly and joyfully allows the reader to engage and learn the benefit of having a 'playful brain and mindset' to face our challenges and overcome obstacles. Being better at play may be the antidote that lifts folks out of an exhausted existence and into the space of fun, humor, laughter and showing life who is living it."
Dr. Janet Taylor, Psychiatrist and Author, The Courageous Classroom
