Ever look at your teens or twenty-somethings and feel a massive generational disconnect? We worry about their screen time, but the truth is, 83% of Gen Zers are practically begging for a mentor—yet hardly any of them have one. This week, Megan chats with Cam Stillings, a middle school youth director who is living proof of what happens when adults actually show up.
Cam flips the script on what mentorship looks like, proving it doesn’t take a fancy degree or a rigid weekly schedule. It’s as simple as inviting a kid along on a Target run, checking in when life gets messy, or being the one to say, “I see your potential, and I believe in you.” If you’ve ever doubted whether your gray hairs and hard-earned wisdom still matter to the next generation, grab your coffee and listen to this episode. Cam reminds us that our kids don’t need us to be perfect—they just need us to be available.
