Raising Pro Athletes
Your kid wants to be a pro athlete. Now what?
Behind every pro athlete is a parent who believed first, who showed up, adapted, and refused to quit. Nobody talks about them. Until now.
Raising Pro Athletes decodes what the parents of today's top athletes actually did.
Host Marina Kuperman Villatoro moved her family across the world for her son's rock climbing career and learned the hard truth: the parent is the hidden variable.
Richard Williams drove Serena and Venus to cracked Compton courts at 5 AM, filmed training videos, and mailed them to coaches who laughed. Everyone called him crazy.
We know how that story ended.
Real talk. No playbook. Just parents figuring it out, one episode at a time.
It takes a Strategic Village to Raise an Athlete. This is your village.

Ethics of Rock Climbing: Where to Pee? Tips on How - To and Where
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Get ready to climb into the world of rock climbing ethics with me in this episode! As someone who's never climbed before, I was fascinated to learn about the unwritten rules of the climbing community. Did you know there are certain areas where climbers are allowed to go and others where it's strictly off-limits? It's all about respecting the natural environment and other climbers.
But let's get down to the nitty-gritty: where to pee. This topic may not come up in everyday conversation, but it's an important one in the world of climbing. While it may seem like a no-brainer to just go wherever you feel like, there are certain guidelines to follow. For example, never expose your butt where others could see it. It may sound silly, but it's all about respecting other climbers' boundaries.
As climbers, we have a responsibility to take care of the environment and each other. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a first-time climber, it's important to educate yourself on the ethical guidelines of the climbing community. So next time you're scaling a mountain, remember to be respectful and mindful of those around you - and try to find a secluded spot when nature calls!
