In this episode of The Daily Coach: Sports Leadership Lessons, we revisit the remarkable journey of Indiana Pacers assistant coach Jenny Boucek, whose leadership helped propel the team to the NBA Finals while she also navigated the demands of motherhood. Her story captures what it means to lead with conviction, humility, resilience, and heart in moments when the path forward is unclear. Through Rick Carlisle’s trust, Boucek stepped into a significant role in the Pacers defensive strategy while raising her daughter on the road, modeling a new version of excellence that honors the whole person behind the title. Her example invites us to examine where we are being asked to rise, who believes in us, and how choosing both family and ambition can unlock a fuller expression of our own leadership potential.
The Daily Coach's first hardcover and kindle book is here. “Hiring” is a collection of The Daily Coach’s best stories on the topic. This book is not a hiring formula, but a practical reference for coaches and leaders involved in team building. Secure your copy of Hiring today.
