In this episode of embers, the Valo teens talk about what it looks like to be yourself–spaces where they feel they can show up as themselves, and other situations where it's harder to.

The perspectives they shared left us reflective and hopeful for the ways that we can help everyone to feel seen and heard.

Embers is a place where teens share their stories as they navigate the waters between childhood and adulthood. Join us as they explore timely and compelling topics—fanning the embers burning in each of us.

Embers is a production of valo. We are an organization committed to guiding teens as they seek to create real connections in our increasingly digital world. We take teens from all walks of life on retreats. In this space, they are eager to open up and uncover what matters most. For them, it’s pretty simple—sustained, unplugged, face-to-face connection.
