If you're raising a teenager right now, you already know something feels different. The rules, the path, the playbook you were handed — it's shifting fast. And if you've been quietly asking yourself, "Is what I'm teaching them actually going to be enough?" — trust that question.
In this episode:
→ Why the CEO of Nvidia made the case for trade skills on a global stage — and the data that backs it up (electrician shortages, 25–30% salary surges in AI-adjacent roles)
→ Which knowledge-worker jobs are absorbing the most AI disruption right now — and what's happening to the entry-level positions that used to be our stepping stones
→ What MIT labor economist David Autor says AI could actually do for the middle class
→ The third lane nobody's talking about: building ownership and deploying AI instead of competing with it
→ Questions to bring to your own table this week — because you don't need all the answers, you just need to start asking
This episode is for LGBTQ+, interracial, mixed-race, and non-traditional families who are raising teenagers right now and building with intention — not just hope.
