Are you raising the next generation of innovators and problem-solvers? In this eye-opening episode, I chat with Margot Bisnow, author of "Raising an Entrepreneur: How to Help Your Children Achieve Their Dreams," about nurturing entrepreneurial skills in children from a young age.
Margot shares fascinating insights from her interviews with 100 successful entrepreneurs and their families, revealing common threads in their upbringing that fostered creativity, resilience, and a willingness to take risks. We explore:
Embracing Passion and Failure
- Why supporting your child's interests outside of academics is crucial
- How to reframe failure as a learning opportunity
- The importance of allowing kids to explore different passions
Shifting Parental Mindsets
- Why the traditional path to success may no longer apply
- How to recognize and nurture entrepreneurial traits in your children
- The value of letting go of preconceived notions about "success"
Fostering Creativity and Independence
- Examples of how successful entrepreneurs were supported in their youth
- Why forcing children into specific career paths can backfire
- How to create an environment that encourages innovation
This conversation is packed with practical advice for parents looking to raise confident, creative children who are ready to tackle the challenges of tomorrow. Whether your child dreams of starting a business or simply wants to make their mark on the world, Margot's insights will help you support their journey.
