What if school actually prepared you for real life? On this week’s episode of “Money” Market, Owen sits down with Olivier Millour, Vice President of Community & Government Affairs for Junior Achievement (JA) Tampa Bay, to unpack how education and workforce development opportunities are transforming the employment landscape. From immersive experiences like BizTown and Finance Park to game-changing 3DE high school model, JA is rewriting what it means to engage students, and the results are hard to ignore. Olivier shares how his personal experience as a JA student to community leader proves firsthand the power of mentorship and exposure at a young age.

Owen and Olivier dive into the stark contrast between the U.S. and European work culture, the evolving role of AI in education, and why traditional classroom models are falling short. Learn how real businesses are shaping curriculum, why student engagement is skyrocketing, and how Tampa Bay is becoming a leader in workforce innovation. Plus, this conversation gets personal, touching on resilience, career pivots, and the unexpected moments that change your life. If you care about the future of employee talent, education, or this community, this episode will brighten your perspective on all three.
