  • How I Turned My 8-Year-Old Sons Into Award-Winning Entrepreneurs | Tandy Virdee

    How I Turned My 8-Year-Old Sons Into Award-Winning Entrepreneurs | Tandy Virdee
    Apr 15 2026

    🔗 Follow Tandy: During lockdown, Tandy Virdee did something most parents talk about… but never actually do.


    He turned a homeschooling project into a real brand with his 8-year-old twin sons — and within a few years they were running pop-ups, winning awards, and learning how to pitch, sell, and build confidence in rooms full of adults.


    But the bigger story isn’t Rocket Sonic.It’s what happened next: Tandy realised young talent is everywhere — in sport, music, acting, business — but most kids never get visibility, mentorship, or doors opened. So he created New Young Blood, a platform built to celebrate and support the next generation.


    In this episode, we talk about:

    🎙 How to build confidence in kids (without ego)

    🎙 Turning creativity into a career (even when family doesn’t “get it”)

    🎙 What Tandy learned working with global brands like Adidas, Diageo & Tommy Hilfiger

    🎙 Why jealousy and gatekeeping hold communities back

    🎙 How New Young Blood is helping young athletes, actors, and entrepreneurs get seen

    🎙 Using purpose-led work to support causes like violence against women and girlsIf you’re a parent, mentor, or young person with a big dream — this conversation will shift how you think about success.
