What does it take to raise not one—but three—elite athletes?

In this powerful episode of Slanted Chalk, Paul Kim shares the blueprint behind his family’s athletic journey. With two daughters excelling in soccer and one thriving in golf, Paul opens up about the early days of “five-goal” hallway games, picking the right coach, battling burnout, and the recruiting process that led his eldest daughter to commit to Columbia University.

He breaks down the strategy behind club choices, balancing academics with athletics, training at home, and why love for the game must come before wins. If you’re raising athletes—or just trying to figure it all out—this episode is packed with real talk and wisdom from a dad who’s living it every day.
