The Kids Are Angry — and they have a point

Remember when Greta Thunberg spoke to the world, shaking with seemed like rage?
It wasn’t drama.
It wasn’t teenage rebellion.
It was truth.

That kind of anger? It’s not emotion.
It’s potency.
The fire that flares when there’s a lie in the room.

And right now, our kids — the sensitive ones, the neurodivergent ones, the wild, wondrous, too-much ones —
they’re angry.
Because we’ve been lying.

We told them to speak their truth — but only when it’s polite.
We told them they’re special — and then tried to make them conform.
We told them the world is full of possibility — while modeling lives of exhaustion, fear, and silent desperation.

They see it.
They feel it in their bodies.
And they are furious.

And you know what?
They aren’t wrong for it.

Because their anger isn’t distractive.
It’s not a problem.
It’s not a symptom to be numbed.

It’s a signal.
A blazing, undeniable force that says:
Something here isn’t true.

Most adults were never allowed to listen to that signal.
They were told to behave. To hush.
And so the potency went inward —
muted into depression, anxiety, chronic fatigue, burnout, self-doubt.
You know it well.
You’ve lived it.

But here’s the invitation:

What if we don’t pass it down?
What if we break the cycle?

What if we meet this generation’s fire not with fear —
but with curiosity?

Ask your child:
What do you know?
What are you aware of?
What would you do differently — in your school, in our home, on this planet?

It might be messy.
It will probably be uncomfortable.
But if you let it — it can be the most joyful, freeing, revolutionary path you’ve ever walked.

You don’t have to walk it alone.

Because you, too, have been lied to.
You were taught to doubt yourself.
To dim down.
To prioritize “peacekeeping” over truth.

That ends here.

Let me walk with you — and with your child.
Let me hold space that invites their knowing, their brilliance, their power — not someday, but now.

We don’t fix children here.
We listen.
We empower.
We co-create the spaces where their awareness gets to lead.

Because these kids?
They carry keys to the future.
We just need to make space for them to unlock it.

Let’s honor the fire.
Let’s build what’s next.
