Mark Keil had an enormous success on the tennis court, especially in doubles.  He won five ATP titles and played at prestigious tournaments- Wimbledon, Australian Open, and US Open, and beating major names along the way. 

Despite his success, Mark admits he often found himself trying to prove that he was good enough, compared to his older sister who was a tennis phenom herself, and his father, a highly esteemed professor who just happens to have an asteroid named after him.  His mom pushed him to be disciplined and instilled a work ethic that helped him get to where he found himself on the tennis circuit.

His achievements are something many tennis players dream of and few obtain, but after listening to this interview you might ask yourself, "Was it worth it at the end?"

Do you remember why you decided to put your child into sports?  Did those reasons stay the same or did more reasons start to unfold, which made you forget what those original reasons were?

Sometimes we lose sight of our "heart goals", which come from a loving and pure place.  What can slip into our reasons can come from a place of fear- fear of our child not being good enough or that we're not good enough parents.

Gabe delves into this common occurrence and how to get back to that place of love and remembering why you want your child to play sports in the first place.

Aiyana Whitney is blessed with height, athleticism, and support from many family members.  This perfect recipe helped her play for one of the most prestigious volleyball programs in the US- Penn State University.  There she won two national championships and was an All-American twice, before heading overseas to play professionally and also fort the USA National Volleyball Team.

Of course her story was not without bumps in the road, but she was bound to succeed with the unwavering support from her mom and closeness with her sister.  Along her journey she realized not everyone was a blessed as she was with her family, which helped her appreciate what she had even more...something she discusses in this awesome interview.  Hear about that plus how she maneuvered through her relationship with her father, who was not "all in" with her playing the sport she loved.

Most parents realize that they are the most important role models for their children (or maybe they don't).  In this episode of Clarity for Parents of Athletes Gabe delves into the impact yelling at referees at games has, not just on the referees, but on your child.

Why has berating referees become socially acceptable and what's the difference between heckling and bullying...or is there one?  Why do people find it necessary to yell at them in the first place?

As usual, Gabe goes deeply in this episode.

Mohini Bhardwaj's parents believed in supporting her when she told them she wanted to move from Cincinnati and train in Orlando, all in hopes of making the 2000 USA Gymnastics Team.  Her dreams to make that team were not quite answered but she continued her pursuit and eventually made the 2004 team and was named captain for the Olympics in Athens...all the while living away from home.  Her path was not easy and her determination is incredible.

As always, I discuss parental influence during Mohini's journey and what pressure she felt from the sacrifices her family made for her.
