THINGS WE DISCUSS IN THIS EPISODE
The role that misinformation and disinformation plays in keeping people from creating wealth and how exposure to wealth really opened Craig’s eyes to the discrepancies of how rich kids grow up with a mindset that is tuned to wealth creation. How intellectual curiosity and learning how to ask better questions fueled Craig's entrepreneurial mindset and helped him to recognize patterns that have helped him stay nimble in business and to strategically plan for the future.How serving in the Peace Corps prepared Craig to be the entrepreneur of his own life, why it's a great path to entrepreneurship, what parents can do to foster an entrepreneurial mindset and how technology can either be a hindrance or an effective tool in developing entrepreneurial skills and thought authority in a teen's area of interest.So listen in as we discuss all these topics and so much more.

Growing up, all Amy Mae ever heard was that she was too much, too loud, too fat, too big. So she tried to make herself small by being quiet, hiding and only letting a select few see who she really was. Then she found Human Design and realized that she was designed to be big, loud and powerful and that her energy probably intimidated a lot of people. Learning Human Design allowed her to fully embrace who she was and love herself fully in the process.
Today she has turned this powerful lesson into a coaching practice where she gets to help others learn to love and embrace their unique gifts and to design a life they love based on their one-of-a-kind human design. She also gets the honor of helping people create better connections to the people in their lives by investigating her client's design and that of their significant relations.
Join us on this episode of Skipping Lunch Lines to learn more about the fascinating and wonderful world of Human Design and how to apply the system to help your teen on their journey to adulthood.

TODAY'S GUEST
During high school Erin McKay Klein was your typical fun-loving, and out-going student. Never the top of her class but always doing decently well and managing to have a lot of fun in the process. Going into adulthood she knew she was expected to go to college, get a good, high-paying job... You know the rest of this story. And Erin followed that typical path with gusto, pursuing the major that she expected would bring her a great return on her college investment, economics. Problem was Erin is not at all the economist type. Unhappy with this choice she went from major to major, traveled down different paths looking for that thing that would help her be successful, but light her up as well.
That relentless pursuit of the right fit led her to network marketing and a career that would totally change the trajectory of her life. Today Erin is happily married with a toddler and building a business around her passion for travel and women's mental health. She is the boss mama behind Moms Just Wanna Have Sun where she helps mamas reconnect to their hearts and souls as they pursue their own goals and dreams. Listen in as we discover:
3 TAKE-AWAYS FROM TODAY'S EPISODE:
1) What to do if you or your teen is an overthinker.
2) How we define our own definition of success and how that shifts as you grow older and more experienced.
3) Why parents must learn to embrace their teen's different path and accept that their child has decided to pursue their passion and not the paycheck.

Alon David immigrated to America with nothing but pure ambition. Longing to make something of his life, and unwilling to settle for picking up garbage and low-wage manual labor, he set a goal to become a successful photographer. With his new vision he took messy action to make it happen.
What he found as he tried to find systems to help him stay on track towards his goal would change the course of his life. The planners on the market didn't really work for him so he created his own. This new planning system was exactly what he needed to hold himself accountable to his vision and he was able to turn his photography business into a 6 figure side-hustle.
What started out as a way to reach his own goals lit a fire in him to want to do the same for others. This is when he pivoted to his current business providing the world's most successful entrepreneurs their planner of choice and coaching people to achieve their goals. Today 90x planners are available in over 100 countries and is used by over 118,000 entrepreneurs and business owners.
3 TAKE-AWAYS FROM TODAY'S EPISODE
1) Having a strong why will help you keep momentum towards your goals.
2) The reason people don't ever really get started is because they try to hold theirselves accountable and it is easy to let yourself off the hook. Look to a mentor, coach, parent, or friend to keep you focused on your why.
3) After you cast your vision, you must figure out what type of person would have what you envision and embody that person. Be that person now! Act as they would act. Think as they would think.
ACTION STEP
Sit down with your teen and open the discussion about goals. This could be done over dinner or on a long car ride. Just make sure you lead with your own story about goal-setting. Talk about why it matters, what small action step you can take right now to move in the right direction, and brainstorm with them what type of person they would need to be to make that happen. For example, if they want to improve their math grade, what type of student gets an A? It's probably someone who seeks help when they need it, solves extra problems to gain mastery, and they probably study in advance rather than cramming the night before. Help your teen to see that they can choose to be that person now by just starting to do those things and by thinking like an A-student.
