About this episode

Brooke Oniki discusses women, leadership, and communication in the Church with her son Ben Austin.

In this episode, I continue my conversation with my son Ben about women, leadership, and feeling heard in the Church. This conversation is an invitation to better understand how our kids experience the Church—their questions, their concerns, and the ideas they’re thoughtfully working through. We talk about what good leadership feels like, why voice matters, and how being willing to really hear each other can create more connection and less fear. If you’ve ever wondered how to stay close while your child sees things differently, this episode offers a hopeful and thoughtful perspective.
