The Flex That Failed
🎙️ XP for the Brain – Ep 4: The Flex That Failed
🐸💨🎯 Based on The Frog and the Ox
Freddy the Frog sees a massive Ox and thinks, “I can be that big too!” So he puffs, stretches, flexes… and completely pops. Turns out, pretending to be someone else is the fastest way to lose yourself.
In this episode, Alex & Steve break down how comparison kills confidence, why copying others never works, and how being yourself is the ultimate power-up. This story builds on lessons from previous episodes — trust (Ep 1), focus (Ep 2), and patience (Ep 3) — showing how every smart player learns to own their stats, not borrow someone else’s build.
🧠 Lesson: Be your own skin — that’s the real win.
🎧 Ideal for kids 6–10 learning how to be confident, stay authentic, and stop flexing for clout.
