Do you ever feel like your parents just don’t get you - no matter how hard you try to explain yourself? You’re not alone. In this episode, we’ll talk about why communication can feel so hard during the teen years, the real fears that keep you silent, and practical ways to speak up with confidence (without it turning into an argument).
You’ll learn: ✨ Why parents and teens often miss each other emotionally ✨ How to communicate what you really feel (in a healthy, respectful way) ✨ What to do when the adults in your life don’t listen or respond well ✨ How your faith can anchor you when you feel misunderstood
Whether you’re trying to build trust with your parents, reconnect after a rough season, or just learn how to express yourself better - this episode will help you find your voice again.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
