Preparing Teens for a Fast-Changing Future
This joint lecture brings together two perspectives:
a young entrepreneur who built her first venture at nine, and a mother with 25 years of entrepreneurial experience who raised her children with an entrepreneurial mindset from day one.
Together, they explore how curiosity, resilience, creativity, and initiative develop at home and in real life and why these skills matter now more than ever in a world transforming at unprecedented speed.
Through personal stories, challenges, successes, and practical methods, they show how entrepreneurial thinking shapes confidence, independence, problem-solving, and emotional strength in teens.
This talk offers a rare, real-world look at how to prepare today’s youth to thrive not just in business, but in school, friendships, family life, and their future.
