About this listen
What makes a great coach? In this episode, I sit down with my former high school soccer coach, Coach Walker—a man who didn’t just teach the game, but taught life through it.
From growing up playing barefoot on the streets of Jamaica to coaching high school and club soccer in the U.S., Coach Walker shares the lessons he’s learned about leadership, resilience, culture, and community. We talk about the transition from athlete to coach, the challenges of coaching girls for the first time, and the evolution (and sometimes downfall) of youth sports in America.
This episode is full of honest moments, laughs, and the kind of perspective you don’t get from the sidelines. Whether you’re a no former athlete, current coach, or just someone who believes in the power of sports to shape people—you’ll take something meaningful away from this conversation.
🎧 Listen in as we unpack:
– What sports really teach us
– Why the best coaches lead with heart
– How youth sports are changing
– And how identity, culture, and empathy all play into the game
