In 90 Minutes You Will Have

Four things you can use on Monday morning

A diagnostic lens. Tell whether your child is building an admissions trajectory — or a busy schedule.

A before-9th-grade roadmap. Course rigor, summers, leadership arcs, testing timeline, narrative.

A yes / no filter. Does this build identity, execution or advocacy — and does it produce an artifact?

The merit-aid lever. Why positioning, not savings, is what unlocks scholarship dollars at your income.

Lionheart laid out a comprehensive, efficient plan. He knows where he’s going — and now I’m more relaxed, because I was quite worried.

Law firm partner, Lionheart parent Saved $200K+ in a 529 — still started in 8th grade

Princeton alumna Raised in a Wall St. household

Who we were raised by

We grew up in your household. Our father spent his career on Wall Street and today sits on the board of a $64 billion bank. The achievement was real. The standards were high.

And capable, well-raised children can still reach high school without a plan of their own. We know the gap you are feeling because our family lived it — and Lionheart is the system we built out of it.

Your host

Nicole Olaniyi — Princeton alumna and founder of Lionheart Coaching Academy. A decade spent building the architecture that turns capable Black students into unmistakable ones.

One More Thing

The room is capped at 25 households so the Q&A stays real.

Above roughly 25 families, a live Q&A becomes a broadcast — and we would rather run the session again than dilute it. If the seats are gone when you reach the calendar, the next date will be offered automatically.
