Forged Youth: Legacy Within
What if the conversations you needed most as a teen athlete were finally being had, openly, honestly, and with purpose?
Forged Youth: Legacy Within is the podcast that equips youth athletes (ages 12–24), their parents, and coaches with the mental tools, emotional resilience, and life insight to rise above the noise and grow into strong, intentional human beings.
Each episode features real, raw conversations with professional athletes, CEOs, and cultural leaders sharing what they wish they knew when they were younger. We unpack topics like mental grit, overcoming adversity, identity beyond sport, and building a life of purpose, even when things fall apart.
Hosted by former elite athlete and mental health advocate Mariel Nichole Anderson, this podcast is your companion through the messy middle of chasing big dreams, and becoming someone even bigger in the process.
Because you weren’t born to just survive sport. You were made to be forged by it.

Hi, my name is Geoff. I was at Mariel's presentation in Chilliwack last night and I listened to her story on her podcast this morning. My son is in Grade 11 and was there also, and I am going to try to get him to listen to the podcast as well for the mental training aspect. Thank you for speaking with all the kids and coaches last night about a part of the training regimen that doesn't always get the attention that it deserves.
