Parents: Turn 'I'm bored' into 'I created this!' Inspire creativity in your teen athletes & performers now with the simple parenting hack revealed in this episode! In today's conversation, we explore the concept of boredom and how it can be transformed into an opportunity for creativity and purpose.

PARENTS: Are you missing out on this opportunity?!

Let's find out as we discuss the importance of recognizing boredom as a choice and how you as a parent (and your teen) can create meaning in mundane tasks. You in your unique role as a parent can be the one to guide your teen athlete or performer to manage boredom effectively and to find joy in everyday activities. Our practical examples and thought-provoking questions will encourage you to shift your mindset and embrace boredom as a chance to create and serve others.
