In this second episode, I sit down with Mark Burke—Associate Head Coach at Cornell, former national coach of Luxembourg, and someone who's worn just about every hat in the squash world.

We go deep.

From his journey as a late-blooming pro to transitioning into coaching…

From working with athletes across cultures to raising a student-athlete of his own…

We unpack the philosophies, the reflections, and the reinventions that define great coaching.

Mark shares powerful insights on what it really means to connect with players, how to coach with both honesty and empathy, and why growth mindset isn’t just for athletes—but for coaches too.

If you're a coach, a player, a parent, or just someone who cares about long-term development, you’ll find a ton of wisdom in here.

Stick around—this one’s layered.
