Why BreakN exists

The show that asks the question nobody asks.

And gives young people the roadmap they have been waiting for.

The mission

More than a podcast.

BreakN is a weekly podcast and YouTube show hosted by Amie Ray Davis and 12-year-old co-host Jackson. Every episode, we ask a celebrity, athlete, advocate, or everyday person to walk us through the real road to where they are.

The work before the fame. The failures before the breakthrough. The practice sessions before anyone was watching. We ask the questions teenagers actually need answered. Not about the highlight reel. About the road.

Focus
A roadmap, not just inspiration

Young people need evidence that a different life is possible — in the voice of people they believe. Every episode delivers that evidence.

Prevention
Interrupting the pipeline

The school-to-prison pipeline is an imagination problem. A young person who can see a path forward makes different choices. BreakN builds that vision.

Intervention
For those already in the system

Licensed to juvenile detention centers and at-risk programs. The show is the spark. The counselor in the room is the intervention.

The math

The ROI is simple.

It costs over $35,000 a year to incarcerate one juvenile. A BreakN episode shown in a group session costs almost nothing. The difference is a young person who could see a road that, an hour earlier, they didn't know existed.

BreakN is not a program. It is not a curriculum. It is a 45-minute conversation with someone who made it — asked by a 12-year-old who wants to know how.

Educational licensing

Bring BreakN into your program.

BreakN episodes are available for licensing to schools, juvenile justice organizations, youth programs, and mentorship nonprofits.

Episodes are structured to work as standalone classroom or group session content. A counselor or teacher plays the episode, then leads a conversation using the entry question as the discussion prompt:

"What is the one thing you want to get good at — and what is your first step?"

The show is the spark. The human in the room is the intervention.
