In this podcast, I share powerful examples from my own childhood—moments where family routines shaped me in ways that still drive my destiny today. Structure, consistency, and discipline didn’t just keep me on track; they gave me the foundation to grow into who I am now.
Because here’s the truth: when parents don’t establish routines or rules, teens are left with no sense of direction. That’s when confusion, poor choices, and unnecessary struggles creep in. Without structure, the family loses alignment.
I break down different ways parents can build routines that not only keep the household running smoothly but also shape their teens’ confidence, decision-making, and future success. Whether it’s morning rituals, evening check-ins, or consistent expectations, routines create clarity—and clarity builds leaders.
Transformation doesn’t happen by chance; it happens by choice. And family routines are one of the most powerful choices you can make as a parent.
