Year 1 of Coaching for Daphne: Experience, Confidence & Community

CrossFit Max

In this episode, we sit down with Daphne to reflect on her first year as a CrossFit coach — the wins, the challenges, and everything in between.

From stepping onto the floor for the first time, learning how to cue with confidence, managing nerves, building connections with athletes, and growing into her coaching voice, Daphne shares what year one really looks like behind the scenes. We talk lessons learned, mistakes made, moments she’s most proud of, and how coaching has shaped her both inside and outside the gym.

Whether you’re an aspiring coach, a seasoned trainer, or an athlete curious about what it takes to lead from the whiteboard, this conversation offers an honest look at growth, community, and finding confidence through coaching.
