Our Why

I have launched global tech platforms and built multimillion-dollar programs from the ground up with teams from Stockholm to Seattle. It absolutely was an adventure to move to a new country or city to see new things, build a career, and most importantly lifelong friends. Heck, I was such a road warrior that I met my husband on an airplane. 

But none of that prepared me for the moment our daughter turned to me and said, "I don’t know what I want to do. How do I figure it out when I don’t have any experience?"

That moment changed everything. I remembered what it was like for me navigating career choices without a map or a parent who understood our generational challenges, and I wanted better for her.

Most young people aren’t lacking ambition. And regardless of whether they know what they want to do after school or not, they often lack a launchpad that propels them forward with the clarity, courage, and strategy needed to make the next 1,000 bold and smart decisions to build the life they want.

So, we started with a blank canvas and built that launchpad together. We mapped her values, strengths, and curiosities and turned them into action while navigating the resistance many students have when advice comes from their parents.

We didn't need just a five-year plan or a polished résumé. We wanted better. We wanted a fearless starting point where she could see and understand the vast opportunities ahead and how to unapologetically turn a vision into reality.

That experience became the blueprint. Together, Emily and I built Young Boss Leaders to help other students and families build their own personalized launchpads to become fearless creators of meaningful work and the elite decision-makers shaping the futures they truly want.

We help students cut through the noise and build the careers, wealth, and lives that thrive in the peaks and valleys that lay ahead. We help parents guide without pressure. And we help develop the tools and skills needed to turn “I don’t know” into “I’ve got this.”

Just any experience isn't good enough anymore. A framework and community are needed to get the kind of experience that propels you to the forefront. And you deserve gladiators who have been there, built that, and know how to help students and the parents that guide them launch successfully.
