The Secret to Raising Kids Who Don’t Lose Hope | Sharon McMahon

It’s our job as parents to remind our kids that they’re not powerless, that no matter what’s happening around them, they can create change in themselves and in their communities. In this episode, Sharon McMahon, author of The Small and the Mighty, joins Ryan to talk about how we instill real, grounded hope in our kids and help them see that making a difference isn’t reserved for someone else. It’s within their reach.

Sharon is known as “America’s Government Teacher,” and after years as a high school government teacher, Sharon now runs the non-partisan, fact-based Instagram account @sharonsaysso. Sharon just released her book, The Small and the Mighty, where she proves that the most remarkable Americans are often ordinary people who didn’t make it into the textbooks.

📚 You can grab copies of The Small and the Mighty by Sharon McMahon at The Painted Porch.
