In this episode of Founders Future, with host Zach Young, we meet Peyten Williams, the founder of Bowbend Consulting. Peyten shares her inspiring journey from a dedicated 16-year career in education to launching her own venture. She discusses the pivotal moment of realization that led her to leave the classroom and her mission to bridge the gap between parents and schools. Her company focuses on inspiring and equipping both groups to collaboratively raise thriving children of character through workshops, consulting, and coaching.

Peyten delves into the three core arms of Bowbend Consulting: advising schools on parent partnership strategies, facilitating workshops for both educators and parents on topics like belonging and character development, and providing one-on-one parent coaching. She explains how her unique background as an educator, administrator, and parent allows her to bring empathy and actionable wisdom to the challenges families and schools face today. The conversation also explores the growing anxieties of modern parenting and how strengthening the parent-school partnership is key to supporting children's long-term well-being and success.
