About this episode
In the quest to be accepted and liked, many teens only form surface-level connections with their peers. They're missing out on what a genuine relationship looks like — and as parents, that's where we can set a good example. In today's show, Mark chats with two young men from Heartlight, including Jack, who opens up about his battle with peer pressure, expressing how his desire for acceptance led him down a path of drugs and alcohol. Through his time at Heartlight, Jack has uncovered the roots of his struggles and the significance of forming real friendships. Want to learn more about the Heartlight residential program?
