If your child is always calling out unfairness (“That’s not fair!”), questioning rules, or leading snack-time protests, congratulations—you’re raising a future changemaker! But how do we channel that energy into something positive? Enter Deepa Iyer, a writer, podcaster, and social justice advocate who specializes in teaching kids social change and community involvement. She’s also the author of We Are the Builders, a powerful picture book that helps kids discover their unique roles in creating a better world.
In this episode, Deepa shares how we can encourage our kids to be engaged, thoughtful members of their communities—without overwhelming them (or ourselves!). From the 10 key roles kids (and adults!) can play in making a difference to simple, everyday ways to spark important conversations, this episode is packed with actionable tips. If you’ve ever wondered how to guide your child’s passion for fairness and justice, this is a must-listen!
