My Philosophy
My Background
My Background
Coaching is a demanding job.
From the X's & O's.
To the relationship management.
To the scheduling.
To the seasonal planning.
Many coaches carry sole responsibility for all that needs to be done to run their team.
- while working other jobs
- while caring for their family
- while trying to care for themselves (this one is a major point of struggle
Coaching is a demanding job.
From the X's & O's.
To the relationship management.
To the scheduling.
To the seasonal planning.
Many coaches carry sole responsibility for all that needs to be done to run their team.
- while working other jobs
- while caring for their family
- while trying to care for themselves (this one is a major point of struggle for MANY coaches)
And they don't receive nearly enough coach training or support to do it.
This can feel isolating, overwhelming and disheartening at times.
No coach should have to navigate all of these demands on their own.
Every sports coach can benefit from help :
- designing & implementing a plan for their season
- delivering team building sessions
- delivering mental performance sessions
- talking through a challenging situation
- designing & delivering effective practices
- communicating & reinforcing expectations
I had some amazing mentors and support systems early in my coaching journey help me with these things.
I'm now on a mission to offer similar support to sport coaches who need it.
Because the truth is we ALL need it.
Minor sport coaches play such an integral role in the development of the children they lead.
Sports coaching truly can change lives.
Sport coaches deserve access to the support and guidance they need in order to succeed in their role and make the sport experience enjoyable and sustainable for everyone involved.
ABOUT POTENTIAL
I believe the majority of people walk around carrying MASSIVE amounts of untapped potential.
My greatest passion is to help them unlock it.
I do this using proven strategies, tools and techniques from neuroscience, NLP and sport
performance theory.
When it comes to my engagements with clients, we don't just talk about goals.
We create a plan and take action towards them.
