The Journey of Zion Givens: From Son to Leader and Co-Founding Up To It

The Athletes Health Podcast episode 62, conversation 38. We sit down and talk with Zion "Z" Givens, co-founder of Up To It, about the intersection of mental health, youth empowerment, and public speaking. Z shares his journey from observing his father's work in the nonprofit sector to launching his own organization aimed at helping youth and families navigate mental health challenges. The conversation dives into the importance of storytelling, the role of hip hop in culture, and the necessity of tough conversations between parents and children. Z emphasizes the significance of confidence in both sports and public speaking, and the need for adults to engage meaningfully with youth to foster trust and connection. We absolutely loved this conversation and I bet you will too!
