What happens when the one holding everything together starts to fall apart? In this episode we’re having a powerful conversation about what it really means to care for others without losing yourself in the process.

We’re joined by Andy Schindling, founder and CEO of TCP (The Complete Player) Youth Empowerment and one of our incredible podcast sponsors. Andy opens up about his personal experience as a caregiver while his wife undergoes breast cancer treatment, and what it’s taught him about emotional resilience, asking for help, and redefining achievement through rest and grace.

This episode is sponsored by TCP Youth Empowerment. We’re proud to partner with a team leading with heart on the court, in classrooms, and in the community.

• The overlooked reality of caregivers: stress, sleep loss, and feeling unseen
• Andy’s biggest lessons: put the phone down, ask for help, take time off
• Why rest isn’t lazy, it’s leadership
• How self-compassion helps you show up stronger for others
• The healing power of nature, prayer, and reflection
• “Self-care snacks”: small, doable acts that recharge your energy
• Redefining achievement beyond hustle culture
• Letting go of control and finding peace in uncertainty

TCP Youth Empowerment (The Complete Player) provides after-school, in-school, and summer programs designed to help youth build confidence, self-esteem, and emotional intelligence—fostering lifelong growth in and out of the classroom.
