    Unlocking the Secrets of Raising Athletes: Insights from a Youth Sports Expert

    Unlocking the Secrets of Raising Athletes: Insights from a Youth Sports Expert Unlocking the Secrets of Raising Athletes: Insights from a Youth Sports Expert. Linda Martindale may be one of the most qualified youth sports experts we've had on the podcast. Her father was a coach, she played D1 basketball. All four of her kids play collegiate sports—basketball, beach volleyball, skiing, soccer, and Lacrosse. She is the head coach of a men's high school varsity basketball team, has a podcast where she speaks to athletes about overcoming challenges, and also happens to be an athlete mental wellness coach!  This is one you don't want to miss. We discuss reframing pressure as a privilege. Normalizing female athlete jealousy - how it brings unnecessary shame and why we need to accept it as competition and use it as motivation. We also talk about why when an athlete quits, this is a normal reaction to hard things and why Linda considers herself a quitter. Linda shares the superpowers female athletes need, how to conquer performance anxiety, and how to teach our kids to be hungry - even if they have never missed a meal.  You can find Linda, her Podcast, how to work with her, and all her socials on her website, MartindaleCoaching.com.

    The Simple Seed – A Book That Will Change Your Athlete’s Life

    Today’s guest is Katie Wood, the author of A Simple Seed. The Simple Seed recently became the best-selling children’s book on Amazon, passing Harry Potter and Dr. Seuss. It also hit the #1 best seller for Happiness Self-Help, passing Jay Shetty, Glenn Doyle, and the Dalai Lama. She's been on The Today Show, and the Simple Seed is now in schools all over the country.

It helps create positive habits and routines and connects parents and kids.  Here’s one of my favorite quotes from the book. "The simple act of planting a seed each and every day has a significant impact on how your kids view themselves and the world around them," {and if I might add - how they feel about their relationship with us) Katie is a former teacher. She was also a college basketball player, and her husband played hockey overseas.
