About this listen

Behind every athlete is a parent quietly coaching themselves through the highs and lows. This book is for them.

In The Parent Edge, former MLB player and certified mindset coach Chad Hermansen delivers a practical and heartfelt guide for parents navigating the emotional rollercoaster of youth sports. Drawing on his own experience as a pro athlete, father of four, and mental performance coach, Chad shares the single most powerful tool he’s ever learned, the CTFAR self-coaching model and teaches parents how to use it to shift from reactive to intentional.

This book will help you:

  • Understand how your thoughts impact your athlete’s performance
  • Respond with calm confidence instead of stress or shame
  • Stay connected with your child—even after a tough game
  • Parent with presence, not pressure

Filled with relatable stories, simple mindset models, and actionable exercises, The Parent Edge isn’t about raising perfect athletes. It’s about raising confident kids who feel safe to fail, grow, and lead on and off the field.

Whether your child is aiming for the pros or simply building character through sports, this book will help you become the grounded, growth-minded parent they need most.
