Cultivating Meaningful Connections

What if the most important thing your kids need from you isn’t a perfect home—but a model of deep, committed friendship?

In this episode of the Made for People podcast, I sit down with Joey Odom, co-founder of Aro (now rebranded as ReclaimWell), to talk about the powerful connection between technology, friendship, and parenting. We explore how our devices can either help or hinder our relationships—and how the way we use them is shaping the next generation more than we realize.

We discuss:

 ✔️ Healthier and less healthy ways technology shows up in our friendships

 ✔️ How to model friendship in everyday life for your children

 ✔️ Why the #1 predictor of your child’s future life is your current one

 ✔️ How to shepherd your children toward a life of deep relationships

 ✔️ Why friendship isn’t just a good idea—it might actually change the world

Join us for this honest and hope-filled conversation about how to build homes where friendship is normal, screens serve people (not the other way around), and kids develop the habits of deep and lasting friendship.
