"Send Ben a text"
Every teen has a spark inside them—something that makes them come alive.
But too often, they get lost trying to be who the world wants them to be.
In this episode, I talk with my good friend Arthur C. Woods, author of SPARK for Emerging Leaders. He shares simple ways parents can help their teens discover who they want to be, not just what they want to do.
We talk about:
👉 Why purpose matters more than perfection
👉 How to help your teen take ownership of their choices
👉 The role of mentors, coaches, and parents in lighting that spark
👉 What real leadership looks like for teens today
This is a short, powerful conversation that will inspire you to see your teen in a new light—and remind you that your job isn’t to push them, but to help them shine.
