Thought-provoking

I am a huge fan of the podcast, having listened to every episode. JP and Nate are easy to listen to and their guests provide insights that are applicable to the home, the corporate office or any sport. The episodes without guests are always topics that are in the forefront of sports and society. I look forward to each release on Sunday.

Amazing Podcast

To find a coaching podcast which emphasizes being a transformational leader and setting our athletes up for success both in and out of sports has been truly amazing. JP and Nate do a great job of finding quality people to interview and take you on a journey with them which will lead to a better version of us as coaches and hopefully the best version of our kids as both athletes and young adults. Thank you so much for what you do. I am extremely grateful I found this podcast!

No longer alone

It's beautiful to find a group of people that are openly and freely talking about the things that can make those feel very alone or lost when coaching. I appreciate how they bring up the hard things, tell their own personal stories, but above all, approach their ideas in the most wide-reaching and encouraging manner. I really enjoy their different takes on the multiple topics that go into being a better coach and person, and the very cool guests they bring on are just an awesome added bonus! They evoke thoughtfulness and challenge us coaches to be better and I'm so here for it!

Thank you guys for going beyond straight game skills and really investing in the most important parts, please don't stop!!
