Antonio - coming of age


Listen Later

Sometimes I hear people disparage the youth - calling them entitled, oblivious, lazy, stunted, or out of touch in some way. I don’t agree with that projection or characterization of young people in the world right now. The youth today inspire me, I often turn to them for feedback and solutions for creating a better future. Most are very in tune and have a keen sense of what is off. My guest in this episode is Antonio. He was born in 2003, and at 17 years old is currently a senior in high school. It’s quite a time in human history to be in high school. Getting to know him for the last few months, I have been impressed with his sense of self and level of awareness. We discuss the importance of being true to yourself, the healing power of music, complexities in family dynamics, the education system, self-expression, and much more. Enjoy this insight into a beautiful young heart & mind. If we want to create a better future, we need to listen to the future.
