I see nothing wrong with the sentence, "A good education will allow you
to achieve your highest potential."

"Enable" arguably connotes empowerment. For example, "A good education
will enable you to achieve your highest potential." "Allow" arguably
connotes granting permission. For example, "I will allow you to go to
the restroom after I finish my lecture."
