16 - Influence - Podcast

In this week’s leadership podcast from Martin County PAL, the mentor team unpacks Influence through one powerful idea: light a candle instead of moving furniture. Drawing from a live youth session, this conversation explores: • Why influence is not control • The difference between correcting behavior and shaping growth • How small actions create ripple effects • Why modeling matters more than lectures • The “30-second rule” that changes connection at home • How encouragement multiplies without draining you Using memorable stories and practical examples, including the candle metaphor and the idea of “polishing your own light,” this episode challenges parents and mentors to rethink how influence actually works. Influence is not optional. With every interaction, we are either lighting a candle or blowing one out. Thank you for taking a few minutes to invest in your child’s growth.
