Episode 20 features Tom Maxon, head soccer coach at Morningside University, and his philosophy of “growing people” through coaching. Drawing on a 40-year career, Maxon emphasizes self-awareness, reflection, and developing human skills over just technical ability.

He highlights the shift from telling to guiding, using tools like a seven-day reflective booklet to help athletes find meaning in challenges. Ultimately, success is measured not by wins, but by lasting impact on a person’s life and character.
