🎙️ TMIT 07: Family Movement
“Movement can be a pursuit, not a punishment.”
In this episode, we explore how when families co-create movement that feels fun, chosen, and skill-building, they create lasting motivation and connection.
TMIT about Family Movement: Building intrinsic motivation through Autonomy — “I choose this.” + Competence — “I can do this.” + Connection — “I belong here.”
We also discuss:
- Why movement often becomes a “chore” instead of a joy—and how that shift happened during childhood and adolescence for Greg & Danielle.
- How the 🔗 Active 1 + FUN study leveraged self-determination theory to create co-active, side-by-side movement that built confidence, skills, and family connection.
- What a family movement experiment might look like, including choosing a new skill to try together and asking the kids to co-create the way.
