"...you're the daughter of the owner of this company. You don't even have to work. What is your problem?...”

That is my guest this week, Rani Puranik, talking about how she turned her back on entitlement in order to lean into empathetic leadership.

Those we tend to look down on because we see them as 'entitled' can be just as frustrated by the limitations that they perceive are being put on them.

Well worth bearing in mind next time you want to cast judgement against somebody that you deem to be in the position of 'having it all' and being 'set for life with no worries'.

Quote from the latest episode of Business Strategy (For We**ie ADHD-preneurs) -

"So one of the pieces of advice that neurotypicals love to give us is do the hardest task of the day first.

Eat that frog.

You know... do the thing that is the most challenging for you so you can just get it out of the way.

This is one of the most soul crushing pieces of advice that neurodiverse people get'.

When you have ADHD, you need to have specific advice that works for ADHD entrepreneurs.

And eating frogs isn't it!

Leave that advice for the neurotypicals.

It works for them.

It doesn't work for you if you have ADHD!

Whether you remember your own school days, or you have kids in school at the moment, chances are you didn't enjoy every single moment of every day.

School isn't designed to make kids happy and fulfilled.

it's designed to fit a set framework, as laid out by the ruling body.

And as you will hear in this clip, Wendy herself has had first hand experience of the limitations of this recently with her own daughter.

Renee and Jonathan Harris offer a solution to this issue.

What about a system where you can establish your kid's talents and skills early on, and nurture those, so that they'll create opportunities for themselves.

Regardless of what school facilitates.
