Teen Life Podcast

Teen Life Podcast comes from Teen Life, a nonprofit organization that has been running support groups for adolescents since 2006. That hands-on experience with real teenagers and real problems gives the show a grounded quality that sets it apart from podcasts where adults theorize about teen issues from a distance. The hosts have actually sat in rooms with struggling young people week after week, and that shows in how they approach every topic. The podcast covers the full spectrum of adolescent challenges: understanding the teenage brain, navigating social pressure, dealing with anxiety and depression, building healthy relationships, managing screen time, and communicating with parents. Episodes also address the adults in teens' lives, helping parents, teachers, and youth workers understand what young people are going through and how to actually be helpful rather than just worried. With 250 episodes in the catalog and weekly releases, Teen Life Podcast has one of the deepest back catalogs in the teen podcast space. The show holds a 4.4 star rating from 25 reviews on Apple Podcasts. Episodes run at a comfortable length and the tone strikes a balance between being informative and being warm. It is not flashy or celebrity-driven, which is actually part of its strength. This is a podcast built by people who do the unglamorous daily work of helping teenagers, and that authenticity comes through in every conversation.
