This conversation is rooted in coaching, culture, and responsibility. We talk about what it really means to mentor young athletes, especially when you’re also raising a daughter in the same world. Jamie shares her perspective on expectations, the tension between what kids want versus what parents push, and how to guide without controlling. We get into mentorship beyond the field, Polynesian culture and identity, and how that shapes discipline, pride, and community. We also talk about the softball talent pool, development, and what it takes to build athletes the right way. It’s honest, grounded, and centered on leadership through example.
