On today’s show, I have Natalie Silverstein, an author, consultant, nonprofit founder, and passionate advocate for family and youth service. 

Her latest book, Simple Acts: The Busy Teens Guide to Making a Difference, was created to help adolescents and teens discover their passion and purpose through acts of kindness and service to others. 

She believes you don’t need to change the world to make a big impact. Even the smallest stone thrown into the water creates a ripple. Teens CAN make a meaningful difference – one simple act at a time.

What you will learn: 

  • The importance of our teens connecting with other human beings and looking outside their problems. 
  • How to encourage your teens to use their favorite sport or interest or talent as an opportunity to give back to others.
  • Cultivating a service-minded family.
  • Every single thing that kids love to do in their free time can be translated into a way to give back to the community.
  • How volunteering improves our mental and emotional health.
  • The benefits of volunteering on your teen’s college applications - specifically volunteering from a place of giving back, not because “they have to.”
  • Why you should be making time for service as a family.
  • What difference is giving back making in teens’ lives?
