🎒 Ever felt like school was just about textbooks and tests? 

Think again.

In Episode 459 of the Dream Big Podcast, 10-year-old host Sophia Karpman shares three surprising lessons she learned this past school year — and none of them came from a classroom whiteboard! From learning how to spot toxic friendships to falling in love with reading again, and even becoming more independent while her mom traveled — this episode is all about growing up, gaining wisdom, and finding your voice.

🌟 What You’ll Discover:

  • Why not all friendships are good for you — and how to spot a toxic one

  • How taking a break from screens can rekindle your creativity

  • The joy of doing things for yourself (yes, even laundry!)

  • A challenge to reflect on your year — and how you’ve grown too

🚀 Key Takeaways:
✅ Choose friends who lift you up, not bring you down
✅ Unplugging can lead to amazing rediscoveries
✅ Independence is a powerful step toward your dreams

Whether you’re wrapping up 4th grade or just love learning about life through stories, this episode will inspire Big Dreamers of all ages to reflect, grow, and shine.
