    Jerry Lynch and John O'Sullivan- Way of Champions Podcast Hosts, Authors, Team Culture Coaches, Mentors

    What does it take to build a championship culture? In this unforgettable episode, I sit down with Jerry Lynch and John O’Sullivan—the dynamic duo working like yin and yang to help coaches and educators worldwide transform team dynamics.  We dive deep into their incredible new book, Captain: The Athlete's Guide to Being an Exceptional Team Leader, and recap the life-changing Way of Champions retreat I was fortunate enough to attend last summer. At the core of our conversation is the concept of The RIVER—a powerful way of "being" that creates deep, lasting human connections.  Tune in to learn how you can make your athletes, students, or team feel: Relevant, Important, Valued, Empowered and Respected.  This is a conversation that will stay with me for a lifetime, and it might just change the way you lead forever.

    Andy Vasily- Teacher, Coach, Podcaster, Author

    “Unlocking what's possible begins with powerful conversations that help to create real change.”  That is the mission statement of Andy Vasily’s Run Your Life podcast, and in this episode, you’ll see exactly how he brings that mission to life. While I’ve long admired Andy from afar as a global powerhouse in the PE community, this episode marks our very first conversation—the start of a great friendship built from the ground up.  As it turns out, global PE presenter is just one of his many titles. Join us as we dive into Andy’s multi-faceted world as an instructional coach, PYP coordinator, author of “Wisdom of Alignment”, and self-proclaimed 'Researcher of Good.' There is so much knowledge packed into this episode as we find out what it truly means to create real change in education and life.

    Mikey Ferraris- International PE Teacher and Coach

    I first met Mikey Ferraris at an ECIS PE conference years ago, and I knew instantly I’d met a soul who truly cares. Whether it’s his family, his friends, or his students, Mikey works tirelessly to create spaces for deep relationship building and growth. In this episode, we dive into the 'zest for life' that defines him. We talk through the unique transitions of international teaching, the joys and challenges of being a husband and father, and what it means to belong to a global PE community. Mikey’s energy is hard to match, and his heart for others is even bigger.

    Jan Hathorn- Athletic Director at Washington and Lee University

    Jan has a wealth of LOVE and knowledge that drew me in from the moment I met her last summer at WOC in Colorado.  We connected right away as we spent time sharing stories, talked about hard things in our lives and learned how to listen better to each other in our small group.  She loves to sing and knows the importance of hugs, two things that are close to my heart as well.  Sit back and enjoy this heart warming conversation with a wonderful human being.
