EP. 109 - Raising Resilient Kids

CFL Hall of Famer, and father of two professional athletes, Willard Reaves, talks to Jason about raising resilient kids, and the mindset he instilled in his boys, CFL player Jordan, and NHL player Ryan.  Willard says he was never easy on his boys, and said it didn't matter how big he was, he wasn't going to let them win against him, and they were going to have to earn their victories, because in life, "nobody is going to let you win".Willard talks about his service to his community, as a member of law enforcement, and how he always knew he wanted to serve and give back to the community, and why, as a native of Arizona, he chose to stay in Winnipeg, and raise his kids there.Jason and Willard talk about the personal standard Willard set for himself and for his children, and they touch on the topic of racism.  Willard  discusses not just having a voice, but how he chose to use his voice. Laugh along, as you listen to Willard explain how getting down the hallway in the Reaves' home was its own lesson in resiliency.Enjoy!
