Parenting teens and young adults isn’t about fixing behavior, motivating harder, or finding the perfect consequence.
It’s about who you are as a parent — and the culture you’re creating in your home.
The Extraordinary Purpose Podcast is a modern parenting podcast for parents of teens and young adults who want calmer homes, stronger relationships, and more confident, motivated kids — by first focusing on their own growth, mindset, and leadership.
Hosted by Chris and Erin Verdis, certified life coaches and founders of Extraordinary Purpose, each episode blends real-life parenting experience with proven coaching frameworks used to support families around the world.
Our Parenting Philosophy
Lasting change doesn’t start with your teen or young adult — it starts with you.
Instead of control, pressure, pressure, or constant correction, we help parents learn how to:
- Lead with calm, clarity, and emotional regulation
- Model confidence, purpose, and healthy decision-making
- Create an environment that supports intrinsic motivation and independence
- Shift from fixing and managing to guiding, modeling, and empowering
- Build strong family culture through simple, intentional daily rituals
- When parents grow, kids feel it — and everything begins to change.
What You’ll Learn on the Podcast
- Each episode offers practical, grounded guidance to help parents:
- Communicate without power struggles or shutdowns
- Support teens and young adults who feel lost, unmotivated, or unsure of who they are
- Set boundaries that feel calm, clear, and respectful
- Reconnect with their own confidence, identity, and leadership as a parent
- Help teens and young adults build confidence, direction, and purpose — without carrying it all alone
Episodes are thoughtful, relatable, and actionable — designed for real life, not perfection.
