YOUR BIG NEXT | business growth, leadership development, scaling with purpose, faith and family first entrepreneur

Today, we are talking about raising leaders, not just entrepreneurs. We are talking about raising kids who are stepping into who they're called to be, who have the courage to live against the grain and to step into their purpose while having confidence and joy in that process.  As a leadership podcast, we're all about outsourcing and delegation and as entrepreneurial parents, we know you have a lot on your plate. We know you’re navigating leading two worlds that are both incredibly demanding and important to you - your business and your family.

You want to do business well and you want to raise your children well, so what can come off your plate and what is yours to keep? What will make all the difference for the leaders you are raising?

Parenthood is hard. 

As parents, we're presented with continual and constant challenges and stressors. Parenthood is not for the faint of heart. Simply providing the basics for your kids can feel all encompassing some days, requiring us to give it our all. 

As entrepreneurs we have chosen a different path than mainstream society and the fact of the matter is - we have made this choice, not just for ourselves, but also for our families by default. Maybe you didn’t plan it that way. Maybe you thought (like most of us do) that entrepreneurship will be your own little lane that you can work in, and then you’ll have a separate lane as a parent. But the truth is that those two worlds cross because you are the common thread in both, and you are in both all day every day.

If we want to pass the best of this world onto our kids, no matter what direction they choose, we're going to have to do some extra work, because they are not going to get it from society, from the school system, from what they see on social media, and from the garbage content that's being put out and directed at our kids. The good news is that I do not believe that the answer is to just work harder and push harder, I believe that the answer is in the small things, the simple tweaks that we can make and the simple things that we do each and every day that are going to result in empowering our children to discover their own creativity, capacity , influence and power. 

Preparing them for the work they will ultimately choose might just be our life's most important work. So, today's episode is all about raising kids in an entrepreneurial family. It is a different path. It's one with so much possibility and so much goodness, but it has its own set of challenges that we have to learn how to face. Today, we're talking all about what it means to raise kids in an entrepreneurial family and how you can make the absolute most of this incredible gift that you're giving them.

Let’s raise them up right!

If you are someone who’s been in the business-building mode for a long time, but you are not sure if you’re really setting yourself up for legacy, then this episode is for you! My guest in today’s episode is a financial wizard, Mel Abraham. Mel has bought and sold numerous multi-million dollar businesses for himself as well as his clients. He's worked alongside incredible people like Arianna Huffington, Brendon Burchard and Tony Robbins. He's a certified CPA who became a true financial expert.

After a really scary cancer battle just a few years ago, Mel woke up to the idea of affluence and financial liberation for himself and for his family and that's what he's breathing into us today - this idea of how you can have your business and you can strengthen your business, but what's happening outside the walls of your business that is also providing freedom and possibility and cash flow into your world to set you up for strength, legacy and possibility beyond the “ right now?”

Legacy starts right now. Sometimes we think of it as this future thing, this concept that we're working really hard for right now, but we will have some day. This is why today's conversation is really gonna wake you up, shake you up and open your mind to the possibility of how you're leading in business, how you're leading your family and what you're leaving behind.

It's not just about money. It's about the moments.

Do you feel that heavy call in your heart to really pour into your children's growth? Do you want your kids to really find their thing, to connect to their purpose, to become these resilient little leaders who aren't bothered by the things other people think? 

You see other kids, face down on their phones or numbing out in front of the TV, and you feel that spark in your gut that says: “I want more for my kids.” You have the vision, but you’re not sure how to follow through. 

It is so freaking hard to find the bandwidth to help facilitate that vision and have it come to life. There's so much on your plate. You're an entrepreneur, you’re a parent and you’re a leader. Those are three really big titles that require a lot. Between running your business and keeping up with the demands of the market, not to mention the demands of your home and your health, how and where do you find the time to lead your kids? 

This is an episode of hope and possibility. It's one shifting your perspective and taking on the most important call you will ever have in your life - Raising Luminaries. 

Let’s raise them up right!

This is not our traditional episode, but it is one that will serve you immensely.

On today's episode we have Michael Unbroken. Michael is an entrepreneur, a coach, a podcast host, an award-winning speaker, a bestselling author, and an advocate for adult survivors of childhood trauma. Michael’s story is mind-bending but on top of that, the whole purpose of having Michael on today's show was to open you up to the possibility that as a high performer who is pushing for your next level of success, you might need to look deeper, past the surface. 

When you're leading and you're in a role of leadership, both in your business and in your family, sometimes you don't feel like you have the space or the luxury to face what's really going on. Maybe it's too painful or it would take too much out of you and you've got nothing left in the tank because you have to give it all to everybody else, so you cannot afford to be anything but “okay”.

I hope that Michael’s story and our conversation will inspire you to see that healing and working through your traumas and focusing on what's underlying that surface, is all part of the process and it will ultimately craft you into the leader you really need to be

In this episode, Michael breaks it down with some tactical strategies and also some real life wisdom and a story that will have you in tears, while simultaneously having your jaw on the floor. He is truly an incredible speaker and someone I'm so proud to bring on this show.

Trust me when I say that this episode will leave a lasting impact on your growth, your potential and how you show up in serving the world.

Wouldn’t it be nice if our kids could rise above all the noise and not be swayed by what everyone else is doing or saying? And instead know who they are and lean into the impact that they're called to make, whatever that might look like for them.

I have that vision for my kids.

But I also live in reality and I know what we're up against. I know they’ll struggle, I know they’ll face the temptations of blending in with the masses or making choices based on what other people are doing. I get that. But the goal is to help them get to a place where they are confident in who they are, know where they're being guided, and they have the tools and the modeling from us to make choices that are going to cause a positive ripple effect instead of being swept up in that current. 

So, today's episode is dedicated to helping us as parents and leaders both to model and to instill the necessary tools, values and perspectives, to raise leaders who are influencing their environments more than being influenced by them. 

Let’s raise them up right!

Do you ever think about the power of the words we use?

Using the proper language when speaking to our kids and helping them cast a vision for their future can be so instrumental as to whether they feel like they have to do something or they're inspired to do something; whether something is an obligation or it’s something they're being called to. 

In today’s episode, we're talking about one simple word change you can make as you're continuing to inspire that entrepreneurial spirit in your kids and helping them explore what's next for them in both leadership and profession and possibility.

Let’s raise them up right!
