Raising CEO Kids

Description: TEDxYouth@Sacramento - Sarah Cook: Raising CEO Kids Sarah Cook, CEO of Raising CEO Kids knows first-hand what it is like to grown up in an entrepreneurial home and the benefits that it can bring to kids. Sarah's father owned his own successful computer programming business as did her grandfather. Their example left a huge impact on Sarah who received her BA in Family Studies from Utah State University and has owned her own successful national-wide direct sales skin care business for nearly 17 years. In the last two years Sarah has worked diligently with her own three children to help bring their business ideas to life and has interviewed over 140 successful young entrepreneurs from around the world. Now she shares what she has learned with CEO Kids and their parents. Sarah is a sought after speaker, coach, and forthcoming author. Sarah believes that when kids develop their own businesses they gain real life skills that can only be gained by "doing". These LIFE skills include business management, finances, service, public speaking, problem solving, and so much more. CEO Kids are often unique in their abilities and parents need to know how to lead them, love them, and then get out of the way as they run their own race to make their dreams come true and break their own belief barriers. When not working, Sarah can be found spending time with her family, working out, reading, or savoring extra dark chocolate with chili peppers!
