"The Real Winning Edge" promotes values through very engaging positive youth role models, who are introduced by celebrities in the same talent field as the youth. The celebrities reinforce the values by calling attention to these youths' qualities as they are exhibited in the program. The characteristics demonstrated by the stories of these youth give rise to adherence to these sound choices that have given them "the real winning edge" in life, such as: discovering where their inner talents lie; developing an appreciation for honesty; developing a sense of self discipline; and developing a sense of internal acceptance.
