Soft Skills & Senior Shenanigans

In the second episode of Beyond the Challenge, Dasha and Wyatt are joined by special guest Damien for a fun, laid-back convo all about what’s going on in high school right now—and how soft skills play a bigger role than you might think.

We kick things off with “What’s Poppin’?” to talk musicals, senior assassin drama, and what’s trending in the hallways. Then we jump into some random fun in our “Just Asking…” segment—like what reality TV show we’d totally crush and what everyday skill deserves a gold medal.

Around the 15-minute mark, we shift gears into the main topic: soft skills. We break down what they are, why they’re so important, and how The Challenge Program helps students grow them through real-world opportunities. From teamwork to communication and leadership, we’ve got stories, tips, and insights to help you get ready for the future—whatever that looks like for you.
