What if we could give our kids the one thing most of us wished we had figured out in our twenties – clarity on who God made them to be and how to use their gifts to create value in the world? The future belongs to the creative and curious – and 60% of today's students will end up working in jobs that don't even exist yet. In this episode, we welcome Dana Roefer, Vice President of Faith Driven Entrepreneur for Teens. We'll talk through how we can give our kids a massive head start in discovering who God made them to be and how they can serve the world through their unique calling. Dana explains why developing an entrepreneurial mindset rooted in faith is crucial for the next generation. Learn how AI is changing the future of work, why creativity and curiosity are becoming superpowers, and how parents can start essential conversations about identity and purpose with their teens. God hasn't placed our kids in this moment by accident. They're positioned to be the entrepreneurs, innovators, and leaders who will steward the future He's preparing – and we get to be part of equipping them for that calling.
