Unlocking the Secrets of Raising Athletes: Insights from a Youth Sports Expert
Unlocking the Secrets of Raising Athletes: Insights from a Youth Sports Expert. Linda Martindale may be one of the most qualified youth sports experts we've had on the podcast. Her father was a coach, she played D1 basketball. All four of her kids play collegiate sports—basketball, beach volleyball, skiing, soccer, and Lacrosse. She is the head coach of a men's high school varsity basketball team, has a podcast where she speaks to athletes about overcoming challenges, and also happens to be an athlete mental wellness coach!
This is one you don't want to miss.
We discuss reframing pressure as a privilege. Normalizing female athlete jealousy - how it brings unnecessary shame and why we need to accept it as competition and use it as motivation. We also talk about why when an athlete quits, this is a normal reaction to hard things and why Linda considers herself a quitter. Linda shares the superpowers female athletes need, how to conquer performance anxiety, and how to teach our kids to be hungry - even if they have never missed a meal.
You can find Linda, her Podcast, how to work with her, and all her socials on her website, MartindaleCoaching.com.
