This week, we catch up on the first of likely many episodes on "coach speak." This episode in particular is about one of the most overused phrases - "the grind," aka #grindszn aka aka #grindtime. Why do we use this phrase? Where did it come from and why has it been added to coaching vernacular? The guys discuss that and more, as well as some great storytelling mixed in.

This week, we continue with the concept of "VISION ROADBLOCKS," which was and continues to be the impetus for our work in Essential Coaching. We hit Engaged Investment, which really morphs into a discussion on creating equity in your program, and how to best achieve that engaged investment through recruiting everyone every day. We really hope you enjoy the episode and you use it to stack the deck in your favor!

In this second episode of who knows how many, the guys dive into the data they've collected and the information that has formed the basis for decisions and strategies for how they operate Essential Coaching. Admittedly, Kyle & Aseem are just two guys who happened to ask questions and  care about the answer. They go into the information collected from 14 unique sports across "levels" (junior high to professional athletes) and gender, as well as team and individual sports. There is proof in the pudding, as they say, that what athletes value most is what coaches are developing in least. That's where Essential Coaching comes in.

Last week, we hit Vision Roadblocks as a whole. This week, go inch wide, mile deep on MAKING THE NEXT CONNECTION. The lack of making the next connection is likely the thing that is standing in your way of making your vision a reality. The other five vision roadblocks all can be traced back to this one, and it's imperative to understand making the next connection before we move on to the next thing.

This week, we introduce the concept of "VISION ROADBLOCKS," which was and continues to be the impetus for our work in Essential Coaching. The guys tried really hard not to dive too deep into any of the six as the plan is to release six episodes over the next few months, one about each roadblock. The conversation  centers around how to recognize these roadblocks and how to "add aces" to your deck as a coach, educator, or really anyone and overcome what might stand in our way as we navigate coaching, teaching, leading, and life. 

As a preview, the roadblocks we discuss are:

The guys are back this week to chat about all things TEACHING and lessons learned from being classroom teachers who also coach. Somewhat a continuation of the levels conversation, the guys get into a series of questions to ask about teaching and coaching, how we can mirror and design learning environments to that of the classroom, and the difference between what *SOME* coaches believe to be teaching and what teaching actually is. You don't want to miss this episode - are you an environment designer or a coach?
