At Be The Change Youth Initiative, we believe all youth should be SEEN, HEARD, and LOVED. Driven by our commitment to encourage youth towards balanced mental well-being, we educate, equip, and empower the next generation to become advocates for their communities. We do this through personal engagement and collaboration through art, music, and leadership as they Share Stories, Extend Compassion, and Take Action towards a brighter tomorrow.

Sydney and Brayden are passionate about sharing the mission and music behind Be The Change Youth Initiative. Through storytelling, this brother-sister duo share their personal struggles, reminding youth they’re not alone in theirs; in the darkest moments, there are people who genuinely care about you and want you to feel seen, heard, and loved.  

What would happen if we truly valued one another, celebrated diversity, and encouraged each other to create positive change in the world? This is the reason the WONDER podcast was created. We believe empathy is cultivated by listening to the life experiences of our neighbors. By creating a healthy environment, where we truly see and hear one another, dignity is restored. Then and only then, will people feel loved.
