Leading Our Kids to a Meaningful Life
In this episode, I share 5 powerful ways to bring meaning back into our kids’ lives—tools that go beyond screen limits and behavioral strategies to touch something deeper.
We explore how to:
1. Create a sense of belonging by grounding children in something bigger than themselves—starting with simple, meaningful family rituals.
2. Offer real-life participation, not just passive entertainment—giving them time to be present, connect with others, experience flow states, and live beyond the screen.
3. Encourage the pursuit of meaning, not just comfort—teaching them to follow what challenges and grows them, rather than what feels easy or pleasurable in the moment.
4. Shift our mindset by believing that kids are anti fragile and that adversity can lead to growth—not just trauma or disorder.
5. Lead with grounded authority—claiming our role as guides and mentors who help our children rise to their potential and contribute their gifts to the world.
This conversation is a reminder that meaning doesn’t just happen—it’s built through intentional choices, deep connection, and courageous parenting.
