‘Stay humble and hungry’ is the walkout tune of my conversation with Alyssa Nakken, first ever female coach in the MLB. The San Francisco Giants coach shares how she is feeling after coaching the season opener 2 short months after having her daughter Austyn and support she’s received from the organization since making the decisions to start her family. We talk about how Alyssa is spearheading new initiatives for other riding female coaches; plus, how she deals with the pressures that come with being the first in big situations. Alyssa shares tactical advice for flourishing in the chaos and the importance of her support system throughout the season and beyond.
