During I share this post in hopes that youth Coaches are inspired to reflect and can safely remove ego before coaching youth.

đź’ˇPersonal development starts within and Coaches, it starts with us!

You can’t teach what you aren't practicing. Find time this month to speak with your athletes about wellness, what habits like mindfulness, 533 Meditation, nature and other activites outside of sports that can suport them mentally.

Ask questions about their perspectives on relevant current events, peer situations, varied scenarios, or past experiences. Learn to listen, follow, and become their safe space for them to express themselves.

"Too many coaches focus only on player development —
without first doing their own personal development."

To guide youth effectively, we must do the self-work.

Here are some examples and ways coaches can prioritize their personal wellbeing.
- Exercise
- Rest
- Eat right (for you)
- Regualte nervous system regularly
- Expand perspectives and experiences
- Therapy
- Journaling
- Reading

Removing the ego requires honesty aabout where hte ego impacts your coaching and connection with young people. TAke tijme this month to reflect, and practice the skills you teach.

“It’s hard to look at something and be the reason that you’re looking at it.” - Coach D

Mindfulness is hard because people are afraid to face themselves and their reality often because they are the reason. Being able to love ourselves when we don’t like ourselves is a powerful skill that no one or circumstance can take away from us.

Mindfulness provides an awareness that serves as a mirror and until we are ready to be honest about who we see when we look at ourselves and deal with what we see with love, mindfulness will be hard and feel heavy. Most will run from it and ultimately themselves.
