S1, EP. 18 - How to Transform Youth Sports (feat. Andrew Simpson)
In this episode, we are joined by Coach and Author Andrew Simpson, a leading voice in the movement to transform the youth sports industry. Coach Andrew brings a passionate and urgent message about the pressing issues facing young athletes today, including anxiety, stress, burnout, comparison, injuries, perfectionism, and identity disturbance—challenges that are at an all-time high.
Coach Andrew believes that the shortsightedness of leaders in youth sports is undermining the confidence and long-term success of our young athletes. But he also believes in the power of change and the potential for a brighter future.
Together, we can shift the paradigm, impacting generations, families, and team cultures, and creating champions both on and off the field. Andrew's message is a call to action for anyone involved in youth sports. Whether you're a coach, parent, or mentor, this episode will provide you with the knowledge and inspiration needed to make a lasting impact on the lives of young athletes.
