Welcome to another episode of The Sporting Change Podcast!
Today, we're diving into a crucial topic for every sports parent out there: "Becoming an All-Star Parent." Whether you're navigating the ups and downs of youth sports or simply want to better support your athlete, this episode is for you! We'll explore how to better regulate your emotions in hard situations, how to differentiate between “difficult” and “dangerous” situations, and when to encourage your child to “be better” versus when to help them “feel better”.
Our guest today is none other than John O’Sullivan, a true veteran in the world of sports with over three decades of experience as a coach, athlete, and sports parent. John’s impressive background includes playing and coaching soccer at the collegiate, professional, high school, and youth levels. In 2012, he founded the “Changing the Game Project,” a must-follow resource for coaches and parents alike. John is also the author of three bestselling books, including Changing the Game: The Parents Guide to Raising Happy and High Performing Athletes, and Giving Youth Sports Back to Our Kids, an invaluable resource for any sports parent.
