[00:09:00] Entrepreneurial Spark

At first, I was focused on helping my athletes, but the more I learned, the more I realized this could be a business. I wanted more flexibility and saw an opportunity to make a real impact.

[00:14:00] Choosing Certification Over a Degree

I share why I chose Lindsey’s certification program instead of going the sports psychology degree route. For me, it came down to practicality, affordability, and being able to start coaching right away.

I had to get creative when it came to paying for my certification. I used professional development funds, opened a credit card, and figured out a way to make it happen.
