Episode Summary 

You’re building wealth—but what about your kids? 

In this special Father’s Day episode of The Fit Financial Podcast, I’m joined by my husband and business partner, Shawn Hanquist, to talk about how we’re raising our three kids—Hunter, Hudson, and Hinley—to be strong, disciplined, and financially wise. 

From grade school to teenager to college student, each of our kids is learning about money, leadership, and values in age-appropriate ways. And in this episode, we’re sharing the real-life lessons, proud parent moments, and honest conversations happening in our home. 

Whether you’re a parent, mentor, or someone looking to model a better future for the next generation—this one’s for you. 

What We Cover: 

• The real-life money lessons we teach our 8-, 16-, and 19-year-old kids 

• What physical fitness and financial discipline have in common 

• The moment we knew our kids were actually “getting it” 

• How we approach giving our kids opportunities without entitlement 

• Why teaching leadership, character, and money go hand-in-hand 

• One money mistake we hope our kids never make 

• How modern pressures around money and success affect teens 
• Our personal mindset shifts around parenting, legacy, and what Father’s Day really means 

Quote to Remember: 

“It’s not just about raising kids who make money. It’s about raising kids who know what to do with money—and who they want to be while doing it.” 

Listen if you’re: 

• A parent looking to raise financially confident kids 

• Wondering how to teach age-appropriate money habits 

• Curious how your fitness habits impact your kids’ mindset 

• Thinking about the legacy you want to leave beyond your business
