228: Parenting, Entrepreneurship & What We Teach Our Kids About Money

As a parent, how are you intentionally — or unintentionally — shaping your children’s relationship with money?

In this co-hosted episode, Linzy and Diane cover a thoughtful topic requested right from the Money Skills community: parenting and money.

Together, they swap stories about what they were taught about money growing up, the values and skills they strive to impart to their own kids around money, and how these conversations naturally evolve as relationships with money shift over time.

They also dive into entrepreneurship and parenthood, exploring how the freedom and responsibility of business ownership has impacted them while raising kids across different seasons of life.

This episode will encourage you to think about how you talk about money with your children, what you hope to instill in them, and the ways money serves as a powerful tool to provide for them, meet their needs, and help them thrive in whatever stage they’re in.
