On this weeks episode of the Coach Me Up Podcast, Jimmy and Chris are joined by Ryan Martin O'Connor, the head cheerleading coach at the University of Kentucky. Kentucky cheer is the gold standard of collegiate cheerleading, and Coach Ryan, as she is referred to, leads a program that has won 24 National Titles overall. No matter what sport you coach, what position of leadership you hold, or where you are in your pursuit of a deeper more meaningful walk with God, Coach Ryan does a fantastic job of coaching us up on several key areas.

After an opening brief conversation about her job as the Kentucky cheer coach, Ryan talks about how choices determine our path, and the power of those daily decisions. Who's you are, and who you are is discussed in detail as it pertains to being a child of God, and erasing the negative voices that try to grab hold of our heart. 1 Corinthians 9: 24-27 is a life verse that has had great impact on Coach Ryan's life, and the group discusses how that applies to our day to day walk. The conversation ends with great insight about how God knows our trials in advance, and He is always with us, never caught off guard by our situations in life. It is a challenging 30 minutes with Coach Ryan Martin O ' Connor from the University of Kentucky.
