Why I Refused to Renew PlanetSpark — And Why I Eventually Did

After three months of PlanetSpark, I made a firm decision: we weren’t going to renew. Not because it was bad. It just didn’t feel like we were getting "enough."

But then something happened.

Two Weeks Post-Cancellation

My daughter came home from school looking disappointed. Her teacher asked for volunteers to anchor an event. No one raised their hand. She whispered, “If I were still doing PlanetSpark, I might’ve said yes.”

That hit hard.

I asked, "Do you want to go back?" She nodded immediately.

Why I Initially Quit

  • Progress felt slow.
  • Some classes felt repetitive.
  • I was focused on results, not effort.

Why I Came Back

  • Her confidence faded without the sessions.
  • I realized growth isn’t always visible in the moment.
  • The habit of practicing communication was more valuable than I thought.

Second Time Around

We returned with a different mindset. Less pressure. More curiosity. And the results were better.

Is PlanetSpark Good for Kids?

Yes, especially when parents adjust their expectations. It’s not about instant wins. It’s about skill development over time.

Final Verdict

We renewed, and it was the best decision we made. Sometimes, quitting helps you see what really matters. In our case, PlanetSpark mattered more than we realized.
