Today on High Performance Parenting, Greg sits down with two of his youngest entrepreneurs — Elli (age 9) and Huntter (age 7) — for a fun and powerful conversation about raising kids who create, lead, and step into their God-given purpose.
Ellie shares how she launched her own all-natural lotion business, researched ingredients, built a business plan, learned profit margins, and sold nearly $700 this year — all while juggling school, sports, and family life.
You’ll hear:
- How kids can start simple businesses at any age
- Why creativity + curiosity matter more than perfection
- The importance of letting kids try, fail, adjust, and try again
- How siblings can support each other instead of compete
- Why teaching entrepreneurship is really teaching leadership and faith
- The value of learning communication and confidence early
- How family support creates a launching pad for kids’ dreams
This episode is joyful, practical, and packed with wisdom every parent needs.
