Coach LaKaitlin Wright shares how she leads with strength while managing grief, burnout, and self-doubt and keeps moving forward. Her story of losing her grandmother while managing her new coaching in Division I basketball reveals the secret behind showing up despite the pain. This isn't just about sports; it's about harnessing inner strength to navigate grief, responsibility, and self-discovery. This episode is perfect for coaches, athletes, leaders, or anyone facing difficult moments who needs a reminder that strength isn't absence of vulnerability, it's rising despite it.
