This is where everything starts to change. The Extraordinary Purpose Podcast is the go-to podcast for parents of teens and young adults who are ready to stop reacting—and start leading… not just at home, but in every area of their life. Hosted by Erin Verdis and Chris Adang—life coaches, parents of four teens, and founders of Extraordinary Purpose—this isn’t traditional parenting advice. 👉 It’s not about fixing your child 👉 It’s about how you show up Because your teen or young adult doesn’t just hear you— they feel you.
