What Happens When Kids Do the Scary Thing | Curious Kids and Bold Teens

What does bravery look like when you’re a 9-year old?

In this episode of Gen Next, Ms. Cam talks with three Grade 4 soccer players who went door to door selling poinsettias to raise money for their team. This is something that made their stomachs flip and their hearts race, but they did it anyway.

One girl prepared a script.

Others improvised.

All of them felt nervous.

And that’s the point.

The girls share what it was like to:

• Knock on doors when they wanted to run away
• Hear “no” and keep going anyway
• Use a script (or forget it) and still succeed
• Build confidence by finishing what they started
• Realize that bravery grows after you take action
• 
  

They also brainstorm kid-approved ideas for selling, creating, and starting small businesses, and challenge listeners to try something a little scary themselves.

💡 Builder’s Challenge: Make something. Sell something. Or try one brave thing this week—with a script or without one.

Because bravery doesn’t mean you’re fearless.

It means you start anyway.
