Stephen Covey and Adam Braverman




Stephen Covey and Adam Braverman

I finished the first season of Parenthood last week, a series that is provided free of charge with an Amazon Prime subscription. While there may be no "star" of this show, Adam Braverman, played by my college alum, Peter Krause, is clearly the center of the family. The eldest of four children, Adam is the family go-to guy when anyone needs advice, assistance, or intervention. And in season #1, Adam almost always comes through, never losing his temper or getting short with anyone. His disposition and demeanor are usually pitch perfect, kind of like he had read Stephen Covey's 7 Habits so many times he had come to embody them.
