PARENTS--Let’s get radical! Let's get honest! We might as well get RADICALLY HONEST!! Traditional parenting often breaks down when your teen starts to compete or perform at a higher level. What they need isn't more control, it's a shift from your best parenting to skilled coaching. We dive into what radical honesty really means, how to reset communication, and why your own growth as a parent is the key to unlocking theirs. It’s not about pushing harder—it’s about connecting deeper. Let's go MVP's!!

You're cordially invited to join us on a LinkedIn LIVE on Monday, September 22nd at 7-7:30 pm MST. It will be informative, interactive, and it's 100% free (really). And did I mention it will be a lot of fun?! See you there! NATE & STEVE: LINKEDIN LIVE--The RADICALLY HONEST Conversation for crazy busy high achieving parents of high performing teen athletes!

"Nobody needs coaching" (say it in a bit of a whiny voice for added effect). While that is a common "hot take" out there in the coaching space, we 100% go against the grain on that statement. Those are fightin' words to us!

After 55ish combined years of coaching, parenting, and marital (mostly) bliss...we strongly contend that while everyone may not want a coach or aspire to be coached, Everyone Needs a Coach!! Tune in to this short but hard punching episode where we will present the arguments against the "nobody needs coaching" statement and throw a few haymakers in presenting our case for the necessity of coaching.

Are you ready for coaching?!
