Part two coming up with Dr. Ava Weitzman.

Ava, I want to ask you a follow-up question to what you just said because I think it is crucial,

rather than just assuming that young women are fine.

As a young woman, you're seeing all these boys who you grew up with and you're having this internal conflict, probably not sharing it with everyone around you.

What would you say to a young women's leader, young men's leader, bishop, anyone, how can we help?

I wouldn't say ignore it.

What did Sister Eubank say about the temple question?

That's a fair question. It's a fair question

for a young woman to be asking. Yeah. The advice that I would give goes back to the idea of

holding meetings and activities versus counseling together. One of the roles that our youth

leadership can fill is really as counseling together, not to just teach them how to run an activity so that later they're good at running ward activities, not just to lead a meeting so later they're good at leading meetings, but rather invite them into council.

We're instructed that in those councils, what we're supposed to be

talking about is the well-being of the people within our stewardship. We can actually talk about

each person, or we can talk about even the generation or the group, the cohort, say, how are people?

What are the questions that they have? Rather than trying to

efficiently get through those conversations, feel like we've done a good job of sort of modeling

a meeting, counseling with the young people, because they know if they don't themselves

have the questions, they know people who do. They can help provide information and clarity from

their perspective to the leaders, whether that's young women's presidencies or bishops, to help them

counsel with and guide and create experiences that make it safe for people to talk about their questions

so that they can work through it together. I would say that the answers continuously come back

to both ministering and counseling together. I think those are really where we want to focus.
