ABOUT THIS EPISODE

In this heartfelt episode, Laura (“LT the Cheer PT”) opens up about the real-life lessons cheer can teach us—and the lessons we often don’t learn until much later. Through personal stories about her own cheer journey, her mom, and the challenges of being in the “sandwich generation,” she shares meaningful insights for moms, parents, and coaches who want to support their athletes beyond the mat.

You’ll hear:
• How cheer builds commitment, resilience, and lifelong habits
• Why parental support matters more than athletes realize in the moment
• The power of teaching cheerleaders to self-regulate, rest, and take ownership
• How to balance expectations, boundaries, and the realities of life outside the gym
• What it means to care for aging parents while raising and supporting cheer athletes

If you’re navigating cheer life—from the sidelines, the coach's box, or the parent seat—this episode offers perspective, compassion, and reminders we all need.
