Coaching Children Toward Passion and Purpose: Lessons from the Gabrial Family
How do you raise children who are driven, grounded, and guided by purpose? In Episode 7 of the Learning by Design podcast, Krishna Cart talks with Helena and Charles Gabrial about how coaching—not controlling—helped shape Helena and her sister Antonia’s academic and personal paths. From navigating gifted test prep and setbacks, to staying rooted in faith and character, this episode unpacks what it really means to parent with purpose. As Charles quotes, “Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.” (Proverbs 22:6)
