How Youths Can Rise Up as Family Champions

All of us want to have value. All of us want to belong somewhere, and for many, family is that place. Life begins with family.Hosted by June, this episode spotlights young family champions Hannah Cheong and Adele Wang as they share their FamChamps journeys and explain why strong families matter. Hannah reflects on how family shapes identity and provides a sense of security, while Adele opens up about overcoming low self-esteem and learning that no family is perfect—but perspectives can change.Together, they discuss how weak connections at home, academic pressure, and poor communication can leave young people feeling unseen or valued only for their performance. Yet, they offer hope: young people can show grace and take steps to strengthen family bonds.Their encouragement is heartfelt: invest in family now, push past awkwardness, communicate face to face, listen without judgement, and remember that a small “how are you?” matters.--This Family Future Maker program is for youth ages 18–30 who care deeply about strengthening families and want to make a meaningful impact in their communities.
