Exploring Teen Entrepreneurship – Show #44
Can you believe that summer is almost here? Seems as though we were just waking up our teens on the first day of school and now we’re contemplating how to keep them busy during the summer months!
Today I’m pleased to interview Shonika Proctor of Renegade CEOs.com. She is an author, speaker, award winning blogger and experiential teen entrepreneur coach based in Washington, DC who has been encouraging teens across the globe to pursue their wildest dreams and tap into their innate talents.
With the state of the economy today, teens and their parents have to get more creative with their summer job choices, especially since the typical retail and restaurant jobs are being filled by over-qualified candidates. Shonika will explain how parents can determine if their teen should even being pursuing the path of entrepreneurship.
You can also get your hands on The Teen C.E.O. Blueprint & Home Study Course and your teen can learn how to start a business, publish their own book, become a public speaker and more.

Hi Aurelia, I agree with them that this is a great post. I just need to share with you that I’m excited for this summer since me and my teenage boys are going on a weekend boot camp. Gladly they agreed to bond with me even just for a weekend. You know how busy those teenage boys are.

This is a great idea And the book looks wonderful. Adults forget how many creative, hard-working, curious teens are out there. I am a physician specializing in adolescents and young adults. And I know that we need more encouragement for kids to pursue passions like these. Best, Ann Engelland, MD
