Becoming My Stronger Me
"Becoming My Stronger Me” is a podcast designed to help you become stronger in mind, body, and heart.
Season 1 - Like 47 million other Americans, I voluntarily left my successful full-time career to pursue, well, whatever was next. We’ll call this “my great resignation.” As you get to know me, you’ll see that I’m a type-A planner. So to make a life choice without some grand detailed master plan on the other side was unheard of. But now, 2 years later, it was the best decision of my life. Join me as I share my story, questions I asked myself (or wish I had), missteps I made (and how to avoid them), the effect this had on me and everyone around me, and other musings that helped me to become my stronger me.
Season 2 - The Mental Performance Series is dedicated to exploring the intricate relationship between mental performance, sports excellence, leadership, and personal growth. We’ll dive deep into the psychology behind peak performance in athletics, leadership roles, and everyday life. Whether you're an athlete looking to optimize your mental game on the field, a leader seeking to inspire and motivate your team, or an individual striving for personal growth and success, this series provides practical tips, actionable strategies, and inspiring stories to help you unlock your full potential and become your stronger you.

Becoming My Stronger Me
The Builder, the Bruiser, and the Bystander
Every adult in youth sports leaves a lasting impact—whether they mean to or not.
In this episode, I'm inspired by Garry Linton's instagram post (@takeflightcoach) to break down the three types of adults youth athletes encounter: the Builder, the Bruiser, and the Bystander. Through real-life coaching and parenting examples, I explore how each role shapes a child’s development—on the field and far beyond it.
You’ll learn:
- How Builders create safe, growth-focused environments
- How Bruisers let ego and outcomes outweigh development
- How Bystanders, though quiet, still send powerful messages
- And how to reflect and shift your own approach, whether you're a coach, parent, or a leader in youth sports
This episode is a must-listen for anyone invested in youth sports—and ready to show up with more intention.
