Helping your child explore different interests and possible career paths early on can shape how they see themselves and their future. In this episode, we share simple ways parents can help kids under 15 discover new skills, build confidence, and stay curious about the world around them.

Many kids only know a handful of careers because those are the jobs they see every day. We talk about how to expand that vision through exposure, real life examples, and what we call vocational creativity, so they can imagine a wider range of possibilities without feeling pressured.

You’ll hear ideas for using everyday experiences to spark curiosity, simple at-home activities like the Job Limit Inventory, and ways to support skill building and exploration now, before specialization becomes important later in the teen years.

This conversation is for parents who want to open doors for their kids, encourage curiosity, and help them explore the world with confidence instead of feeling rushed to choose a single path too soon.
