Are the best athletes really the worst coaches? Does spectacular athletic ability make it harder to teach the average athlete or client? AJ and Zach discuss which movements are their favorites to coach, how different learning styles affect their teaching styles, and how much they have learned over the last decade.

Zach and AJ talk about finding your "Coaching Voice", and how to develop one's coaching identity. Contrary to the name, this applies to almost everyone who has a profession or a passion and would like to develop their skills and their unique personality as it applies to their job. Spoiler: it all comes down to vulnerability.
Zach and AJ discuss what it takes to organize and run a non-profit. Or as Zach states "30 minutes to non-profit." Listen in on some of their tips and experiences, as well as get a better understanding of why they chose to start 206 South.
