Ivy League Prep Academy Podcast

Equipping you to successfully pursue the college of your dreams. I believe that the world needs every student to reach their full potential. College admittance shouldn't hold you back. I'm an educator and Harvard grad who has been in your shoes. I designed this podcast to accompany the Ivy League Challenge (my online course) to support my listeners. I've met with graduates, admissions officers, and professors to identify the criteria used to select candidates. I've crafted a road map for success and can share it with you.

Ivy League Prep Academy Podcast

Curiosity is a Skill to Develop

April 21, 2025 • Steve • Season 2 • Episode 232

This episode is a special one — made especially for parents of Curiosity Lab students, but meaningful for anyone raising a curious preteen.

Inside, Steve shares:

Why curiosity is a skill, not a personality trait — and why that matters
The five core pillars of the Curiosity Lab (and how they work together)
Three powerful ways parents can support curiosity at home
A bonus mindset shift that will change how you respond when your child says, “This is hard.”

Whether your child is already enrolled in the Curiosity Lab or you're curious about what makes this program so unique, this episode will leave you inspired and equipped to support your 10–13-year-old in the most important learning window of their life.
