60. My 9-Year-Old Is Already a CEO

Last weekend, Emily was out of town when her husband texted the family group with three words: Logan just hit a grand slam. Her almost-nine-year-old's wildest dream just came true. But the part that stopped Emily in her tracks came later, when Logan reflected on the moment and said, "Mommy, what people don't know is I knew that was going to happen." He had felt it in his body. He had visualized it. He had decided. And then he stepped up to the plate and made it real.This episode is for the ambitious mom who is in the building phase, before the proof, before the payoff, before anyone else can see the vision she is holding. Emily walks through the moments that have been stacking with her oldest son over the last year, why she now believes that raising an intentional kid and building a real business are the same muscle, and what it actually takes to keep going when everyone in your circle still quietly thinks you are crazy. She also shares the morning she led her whole family through a "puppet master" energy reset, the reading story that taught her to trust readiness over fear, the Shopify store her almost-nine-year-old is launching, and the one question every ambitious woman has to stop asking if she actually wants what she says she wants.Questions Answered in This Episode:What does it look like to lead the energy of your home as a mom and why can it change everything inside two minutes?What did Logan reveal about visualization, intuition, and self-trust the day he hit the grand slam?Why are raising an intentional kid and building a real business actually the same muscle?How do you keep building toward a vision when everyone in your circle still quietly thinks you are crazy?What does it look like to trust readiness instead of forcing the timeline, and how does that same principle apply to your business?How does fear quietly drive the wrong decisions in both parenting and entrepreneurship, and what does Emily ask herself instead?Why is the question no longer "Is this possible for me?" but "What is it going to take, and am I actually willing to do the work?"What is the most consistent person in the room doing differently than everyone else, and why does it almost always pay off?Mentioned in this episode:Episode 55: You Can Be a Present Mom and an Ambitious Woman — But It's Not AccidentalEpisode 58: The Message I'm Going All In On in 2026THE CEO BESTIES MEMBERSHIP:A Membership For Ambitious Women Building Profitable Businesses Alongside CEO Besties Who Get It.Join the membership: https://theceobesties.com/membership/CONNECT WITH EMILY:✨ Website: www.emilycollins.com✨ Instagram: @heyemilycollins
