How to Foster Entrepreneurial Skills In Your Young Innovator

Raising Innovators

Every big dream starts with a spark of curiosity. Our job as parents isn’t to
create the spark, it’s to fan the flame.
In this episode, John de Armas, CEO of ProfitLand Partners, joins the
conversation to share real-life stories and powerful strategies for helping
children develop entrepreneurial thinking.

John brings wisdom and warmth to the idea that entrepreneurship isn’t just a
skill—it’s a mindset. He shares how parents can nurture this mindset through
everyday moments like budgeting a dollar, growing a garden, or selling
homemade spaghetti sauce.

Financial literacy, creativity, and resilience are built when we encourage our
kids to ask questions, make decisions, and take risks in a safe and supportive
environment.

Tune in and explore how simple actions today can shape the next generation
of changemakers.
