What started as a reluctant leap into homeschooling during 2020 quickly became a mission we couldn’t ignore.
We saw firsthand how much was missing in traditional education—creativity, critical thinking, real-world skills, and purpose.
So we prayed, took a deep breath, and said yes to building something different.
What began as an in-person school has now grown into Lifestyle Creators Academy Online—a powerful, affordable program that helps families teach what truly matters: entrepreneurship, personal development, financial literacy, health, and purpose.
We believe kids were born to lead, not follow—and we’re here to give them the tools to thrive in the real world.
Let’s raise world-changers, together. 💛
Meet The Founders
We’re a husband-and-wife duo raising three amazing kids—Taleiya, Julien, and Malikai—and doing our best to follow the path Yahuah placed on our hearts.
We never set out to start a school or run an online program... we were just trying to survive the chaos of 2020 like everyone else. But when we realized how broken the system was and how unprepared it left kids for real life, we decided to do something about it. And somehow that turned into building
Lifestyle Creators Academy.
With a background in business, marketing, and coaching, we blended our passions and experience to build a program that’s just as much about purpose as it is about planning.
Together, we’ve created a learning experience that’s fun, empowering, and rooted in real-world growth! An affordable, purpose-driven online program that actually teaches what matters: entrepreneurship, financial literacy, personal growth, real-world skills—and how to live a life full of intention.
Wesley leads with heart and creativity, while Ryan brings strategy and vision. And together, we bring the craziness & fun!
We believe in raising confident, purpose-driven leaders who know who they are and how to make an impact.
And we’d be honored to support your family on that journey.
