Running away isn’t just about escaping home — it’s often a sign of deeper issues beneath the surface. In today’s episode, Mark sits down with two Heartlight teens who share what led them to leave home and the pain that fueled their choices. Through candid conversations, both young ladies reveal the impact of unstable family dynamics, the pain of isolation and the courage it takes to face their struggles head-on. Listen in as we unpack what’s really going on when teens run away — and how caring adults can help them find their way back. Interested in learning more about the Heartlight residential program?
