episode The Power of Child Entrepreneurship artwork

The Power of Child Entrepreneurship

Leah Ellis believes the only thing standing in the way of kids achieving extraordinary success is limitations placed on them by adults.  Ellis is the founder of the Society of Child Entrepreneurs, which provides hands-on learning, business experiences and community spaces for kids ages 6–17. Her work encouraging kids to start businesses builds confidence, independence and real-world skills. An entrepreneur herself, Ellis is a published author and runs a wedding officiant business. Her never-take-no attitude results in innovation wherever she goes.  In this episode of Let's Get Personal, Leah shares why kids are capable of more than we think and what results are possible when we let them lead.
