In this episode, Steve Cherrico sits down with Justin Theriot, District Director of Greater Cincinnati, and Ty Singleton, new Area Coordinator. Together, they discuss the journey of bringing First Priority to Cincinnati, from Justin's early days of "tilling soil" alone to the incredible growth the District is experiencing today. With 15 active clubs and plans to exceed 20 schools by year-end, they share powerful stories of students encountering the Gospel and lives being transformed on public school campuses. Ty reflects on his personal testimony—how a peer's boldness to share the Gospel saved his life—and why this mission resonates deeply with him.

In this episode, Lisa, Keith, and Tejas discuss:The value of student-led experiences and internships for your teen. Building teen confidence, developing professional skills while still in high school, and using experiences to gain clarity about future careers.The importance of your student getting involved in extracurriculars early in high school. How to DIY opportunities through school-business partnerships for your teen.Key Takeaways: During your student's freshman year, let them get used to the rigors of high school and encourage them to figure out how they want to get involved at school. Confidence is a skill your teen will build through practice and pushing themself outside their comfort zone. The more your teen stretches, the more their confidence will grow.Sometimes, an internship will confirm that the path is the right fit for your teen. But even if they find it is not the right fit, that is equally valuable.As proficiency increases, passion also tends to increase in equal measure. Passion can grow with proficiency. “It is really valuable for the student as a person and pushing them outside their boundaries and getting uncomfortable and all those things. But it's also valuable for the resume, the application, and building those experiences that make you who you are, and you can find those wherever you are.” – Keith KoehneAbout Keith Koehne: Keith Koehne has always wanted to have the greatest impact on the greatest number of students possible. He has a passion for leadership and connecting education with business leaders for the benefit of students. He is honored to serve as the Executive Director of the INTERalliance of Greater Cincinnati, whose mission is to fill the regional IT talent pipeline by inspiring, developing, and retaining exceptional high school students.Episode References:Tips for Sending Student Emails that Get a Reply: https://flourishcoachingco.com/email Get Lisa's Free on-demand video: How-to guide for your teen to choose the right major, college, & career...(without painting themselves into a corner, missing crucial deadlines, or risking choices you both regret). flourishcoachingco.com/video Connect with INTERalliance:Website: https://interalliance.org/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-interalliance-of-greater-cincinnati/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/interalliancegc/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/interalliance/ Mastodon: https://mastodon.social/@interalliancegc/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/interalliance.org Connect with Lisa:Website: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@flourishcoachingcoInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/flourishcoachingco/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/flourish-coaching-co
