Episode 25: Aaron Anderkin (Youth sports Dad/coach/former athlete) - Can any other youth sports parents relate to 90% of their non-work life being consumed by sports? - Growing up in a small town, idolizing the "hometown heroes" - The challenge of doubling as both a youth sports parent AND a youth sports coach. How do you strike the correct balance? - The trickle down effect we are seeing of players, parents, coaches, etc. seeking IMMEDIATE GRATIFICATION. - Kids compete for a ring or trophy every weekend now... It used to be a year's long investment toward winning such big prizes. - FOMO drives so much of the vicious cycle of doing more, more, more in youth sports. - Real talk: Puberty is the great equalizer. All of the success at young ages does NOT equal success at the older ages. - As a coach or youth sports parent, the true measure of success is your kid answering YES to the following question: "Do you want to play again next year?" - Parental red flags (especially on social media!!!) - And of course... MORE HOT TAKES
