Episode 34 : Shae Robertson (Former Ohio University Soccer Player, Current coach/trainer) In this episode, I sit down with Shae Robertson, former All-American and Ohio University standout, to discuss what it really takes to reach the next level—and why so many parents are asking the wrong questions. 🔹 From Player to Coach – Now on the other side of the game, Robertson quickly jumped into coaching and training young athletes, gaining a whole new perspective on youth sports. 🔹 The “Magic Formula” Myth – Parents constantly ask, “What did you do to become a D1 player?” But the truth? There’s no one-size-fits-all path. 🔹 The Secret to Her Success? PLAY. – Forget endless private sessions and expensive training programs—Robertson credits her backyard games, pickup matches, and pure love for the sport as the real key to her development. 🔹 What If the Magic Formula Is Simply Loving the Game? – The best players aren’t always the ones who train the most, but the ones who can’t get enough of the sport—on their own terms. 🔹 The Pressure of Being "The Star" – As her former club and high school coach, we take a trip down memory lane, discussing what it was like to carry the weight of high expectations. 🔹 Navigating the Recruiting Process – Robertson shares honest advice for young athletes and parents trying to navigate the college soccer landscape. 🔹 The Harsh Reality of College Athletics – College sports aren’t always the dream people imagine. It’s hard. It’s not always fun. And it takes a serious toll on the body. 🔹 And of course… MORE HOT TAKES!
