Hey! I’m Ashley Burkhardt, a Midwest girl who lived out her dream of becoming a D1 softball player and, later, a professional athlete. SO MANY parents ask me how my parents were able to raise THREE daughters to become D1 athletes, and I truly believe it wasn't a coincidence. I’m ready to share with you a little bit of how WE did it (from the car-ride home conversations to traveling 4 hours a week to lessons!) and give you some tips and tricks to help your daughter reach her dreams. I’m eager to also share with you interviews with some of the BEST softball influencers, parents and coaches to see how THEY did it...because, just like you, I’m eager to learn how to become the best version of myself, and learning from other people’s journeys is how we can make that happen. Buckle up! This is going to be a FUN ride!

Dr. Chris Carr - Green Bay Packers Director of Performance Psychology: Building Mental Toughness
I’m THRILLED to introduce to you Dr. Chris Carr who is the current (and first ever!) Director of Performance Psychology and Team Behavioral Health Clinician for the Green Bay Packers. I met him while he was working at Purdue University and he helped guide me through one of the toughest mental battles I had ever faced in my career where I thought about quitting the game of softball. In this conversation, Dr. Carr explains the impact of properly knowing how to goal-set, building relaxation techniques, journaling to become more self aware and drops MULTIPLE resources you can use to keep growing AND practicing your mental muscles, because like he says, if your game is 90% mental, then why don’t we practice it? Ready to have you mind BLOWN like I did a few times?! Get a notebook...you’re going to learn SO MUCH in this one!

Reseñas de los clientes
The best advice, hands down!
Ashley gives the best advice for athletes of all ages, from little league to the college-level. Her honesty and authenticity make her so relatable as a mentor. The topics that she discusses on the podcast, such as mental toughness and attitude, are essential to learning at a young age. I always have more tips to take-away after each episode that I can implement into my game to take it to the next level. I love listening every week!
So Good!
This podcast has become a family favorite! Listening to it helps my daughter feel stronger in her mental game and it has opened my eyes to things I never thought about where softball is concerned. We seriously can’t get enough and are always excited when a new podcast comes out. If you have a daughter who loves the game of softball you must check it out.
Great
Love all the wisdom she shares and listening to the experiences she has had. Great softball podcast
