This is why your child won't get into Harvard

Your child can’t dream of a future they’ve never seen.
In this video, we explore the real reason why most kids never aspire to top-tier universities like Harvard, Stanford, or MIT—and it’s not about intelligence or motivation. It’s visibility.

We begin with a simple truth: kids choose their future by pointing to what they’ve seen—on screens, in school halls, in the lives of those around them. If academic excellence and scholarly ambition aren't visible, they won’t feel real. They won’t be dreamable.

This episode unpacks:

Why academic role models are invisible in popular culture

How environment—not genetics—shapes long-term ambition

How to deliberately create an environment that builds academic dreams

The hidden world America’s educational elite rarely talks about

Whether you're a parent navigating U.S. education for the first time or a strategic planner eyeing Ivy League futures, this video will reshape how you think about schools, peer groups, and your child’s potential.
