About this listen

Why do 70% of kids quit youth sports by age 13? Often, it’s not because of the game—it’s because of the 15-minute drive home.

In the premiere episode of Lead, we dive into the "Car Ride Home" Manifesto. We explore why the post-game debrief is often the most damaging part of a young athlete's development and how parents and coaches can shift from "interrogators" to "safe harbors."

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • The "Biological Refractory Period": Why your child can’t hear your coaching after a loss.

  • How to balance being a "Coach-Parent" without burning out your kid.

  • The transformative power of the "Six-Word Solution."

Stop the post-game lectures and start building a resilient, confident athlete.
