In this episode, we talk with Samantha Jansky—co-founder and Head of School at Ascent Academy —about building a new kind of education. Samantha shares how her own mentorship journey shaped her work today, from studying political science to launching a learner-driven school where kids create business plans by age six and set their own goals daily.We dive into entrepreneurship education, parenting for independence, what real mentorship looks like in 2025, and why it’s so critical to let young people lead their own learning. Plus: what makes a great    guide (not a teacher), why parents need to be on their own hero's journey, and the power of asking better questions—not giving all the answers.💡 Whether you're a parent, educator, entrepreneur, or mentor—this episode will leave you thinking differently about what’s possible.🎧 Rate, Review, and Share!
