Nine Years Old and Already Making Waves | Episode 417
Looking for a simple, reliable way to listen anywhere, anytime? We open with a quick, guided tour of our Buzzsprout page so you can stream every episode from a single link, no app required. It’s the first place our new releases land, complete with clean navigation, readable descriptions, and a follow button that keeps you in the loop without clutter.

From there, we shine a light on Voices for Voices Publishing and the breakout debut from nine-year-old author Ryan Solomon. The Search for Drake Colton blends courage, faith, and adventure as Princess Amy ventures to the Oregon coast to uncover what happened to her parents. We talk about why this story resonates with young readers, where to find it online, and how honoring royalties for child creators builds trust and sets a healthy standard in publishing. When families see fair treatment, more kids feel safe to write, revise, and share their work.

The conversation turns toward winter, service, and the lessons learned inside overnight shelters. We walk through intake lines, hot meals, the quiet relief of a warm space, and the humility that comes from seeing neighbors weather the cold with courage. It’s a real-time reminder that mental health and community care are linked, and that sustainable service requires boundaries, rest, and teamwork. Our small team does a lot with a little, and your shares help transform individual stories into a global impact.

Help us reach bold milestones—300 countries, 3,000 cities, and a lifetime goal of serving three billion people—by doing something simple today: subscribe on your favorite platform, follow our Buzzsprout page, share this episode with a friend, and tell us where you’re listening from. If the story moved you, leave a review and spread the word; your voice helps lift every other voice.
