What if the chaos on the sidelines could be replaced with calm, connection, and character-building moments? In this profoundly insightful episode, we sit down with Jonathan Carone, the creator of Healthy Sports Parents, a fast-growing podcast and social media movement that's transforming how we view youth sports.

With over 70,000 followers and 2 million monthly views, Jonathan's message is clear: youth sports are not about raising great athletes — they're about raising great humans. From sideline meltdowns to teachable moments, he shares how sports can become a virtual classroom for life, teaching resilience, teamwork, responsibility, and emotional intelligence.

Whether you're a parent, coach, or simply someone who's seen a youth game go off the rails, this episode will leave you inspired to shift your mindset and parent with intention — from the bleachers and beyond. You'll also hear about his upcoming book, The Sideline Survival Guide, and how a side project grew into a national movement with endorsements from Olympians and Division 1 coaches.

Key Takeaways:

• Youth sports should be a classroom, not a competition.

• Emotional chaos on the sidelines affects kids deeply — awareness is key.

• Parenting from the sidelines means cheering, not coaching.

• Empathy and self-awareness lead to better sideline behavior.

• Responsibility and resilience are the real trophies of youth sports.
