Part 1 of 3: Are you concerned for your kids education and their future?
In this episode I talk with founder Ben Richardson of Not Normal Academy. He challenges everything you thought you knew about education, success, and preparing the next generation for the real world.

Traditional school systems are failing our kids — cramming facts for tests they'll forget by summer, while leaving them unprepared for the rapidly changing economy, AI disruption, and the opportunities of the future. In this eye-opening first episode, Ben introduces his bold vision: a "Not Normal" approach that prioritizes real-world skills, hands-on learning from top experts (think Olympic athletes, Michelin-star chefs, entrepreneurs, and industry leaders), entrepreneurship, and building genuine advantage in an uncertain world.

Whether you're a parent concerned about your teen's future, a young person looking to break the mold, or someone tired of the "safe path" that no longer guarantees success, this episode will challenge your assumptions and spark new ideas about what education should look like.

Key topics:

  • Why college and traditional credentials are losing their value
  • The skills that actually matter in the age of AI and automation
  • Building resilience, opportunity-spotting, and real-world competence
  • A new model for raising capable, confident young adults

If you're ready to think differently about success, growth, and what "normal" really means — this is where the revolution begins.
