Teen Exec Podcast
The Teen Exec Podcast helps teens build the real-world skills they need to thrive—in school, in leadership, and in life. Hosted by high school student Natalya Lucas, founder of the Teen Exec program, the show features a mix of thoughtful interviews and practical how-to conversations designed for today’s students. In some episodes, Natalya teams up with her mom, Dr. Stacy Smith, a physician and professor, to interview leaders from education, business, athletics, and the arts. Together, they explore how successful adults use executive functioning skills—like time management, planning, and goal setting—in their work and daily lives. In others, she co-hosts with her dad, Jeff Lucas, a business school instructor and former marketing executive, to break down leadership strategies and productivity tools teens can apply right away—whether they’re leading a club, managing school projects, or planning for the future. Every episode blends insightful conversations with actionable tools to help teens—and the adults who support them—develop skills they can use now and grow into over time. Learn more at teenexec.com.
