Who’s in Charge? How to Raise Leaders at Home This Summer

In this episode of the Crazy Cool Family Podcast, we dive into one of our favorite summer themes: raising leaders under your roof. Whether your kids are toddlers or teens, summer offers the perfect opportunity to build leadership skills in a low-pressure, high-relationship environment. 

We explore what leadership looks like in everyday moments—from assigning simple responsibilities around the house to encouraging kids to take initiative, manage conflict, and serve others well. You’ll learn: 

  • Why summer is a leadership laboratory 
  • How to teach kids responsibility without micromanaging 
  • The power of failure in developing strong leaders 
  • How to give each child—firstborn, middle, and youngest—a chance to lead 

We also talk about speaking leadership identity over your kids and giving them a vision for who they can become.
