Wisdom at Twelve: How Kenny Rochon is Changing the World
If you don’t think you can learn a lot from a 12 year old - you’d be wrong.
In this inspiring episode, Terry sits down with twelve-year-old author and thought leader Kenny Rochon. Despite his young age, Kenny has already written fourteen books, publishing his first at just six years old, and recently released his latest, Kennversations.
He has appeared in multiple magazines, and developed a growing body of work centered on leadership, character, compassion, and personal responsibility. His perspective offers a refreshing reminder that influence and impact are not reserved for adults.
Kenny shares how his writing journey began at age six, how his father encouraged his creativity, and why he focuses on uplifting topics designed to bring joy, curiosity, and reflection to readers of all ages. He discusses the philosophies that guide him, including the Bottom Line and The True Gentleman, and opens up about what it means to strive for integrity, humility, and connection in a world that can feel divided. He also talks about his passion for animals, his experiences in Boy Scouts, sports, music, and how he hopes to inspire kids and adults alike to live with intention.
Listeners will hear wisdom far beyond his years and a genuine desire to make a difference through kindness, creativity, and action.
