In this episode, I’m excited to introduce my new friend, Kerry Hew. Kerry is a father of three boys, and we met at a recent Speakers Institute event. He’s here to share his intentional approach to parenting, focusing on raising his sons to be confident communicators and preparing them for adulthood.

Kerry talks about a unique exercise he created with his boys to help build their communication skills. He had them record short, two-minute videos each day, working on public speaking and storytelling. Through consistent practice, they not only became more confident, but they also opened up about their daily lives, leading to deeper conversations that wouldn’t have happened otherwise.

This simple practice evolved into a 30-day course called "Raise the Rizz," which Kerry designed to help parents and kids strengthen their bond while developing important communication skills. Originally aimed at dads and sons, it’s now adapted for any parent-child combination. The course includes fun, practical exercises that build charisma and storytelling abilities in a low-pressure, engaging way.

Kerry and I also discuss the importance of communication in today’s digital world, where kids often spend more time on their phones than in face-to-face interactions. He shares how this exercise transformed his relationship with his sons, and how any parent can do something similar at home to build stronger connections.

If you’re looking for ways to help your child grow into a confident communicator while strengthening your relationship, this episode is full of practical advice and inspiration from Kerry’s experience.
