126. Leah Ellis and The Society of Child Entrepreneurs

In today’s episode, we get to spend time with Leah Ellis from Kansas. Leah is a mother of 4, previous homeschool mom, founder and executive director of The Society of Child Entrepreneurs, or SoCE, and the creator of the Astra and Zeke book series for children. She is all about empowering children through entrepreneurship. Leah discusses her background in homeschooling, emphasizing individualized education and the importance of letting children learn at their own pace. She highlights how her daughter’s desire for a traditional school experience led to a flexible approach based on each child’s needs. In our conversation, Leah encourages parents to let children progress at their own pace, avoid burnout, and recognize that learning happens everywhere—not just through formal curriculum. She stresses the value of practical, hands-on experiences and adapting teaching styles to each child.
