In the 38th edition of The Talking Shop Podcast, I chat with Abby Moser who has done it all in college volleyball. From athlete, to graduate assistant, to assistant coach, and to head coach, her experience is one of a king. We chat about how she's made some opportunities but also just taken advantage of opportunities that were given to her. It's been a crazy road and one definitely worth hearing. Here's what was mentioned in the show:

In the 34th edition of The Talking Shop Podcast, I chat with my friend who I met 5 years ago through networking, Ashley Beaton. From college volleyball, to a Master's of Business, to now the NCAA, we talk about the individual experiences but also the common lessons you can learn from them. Ashley and I actually share a lot of the same viewpoints on networking and core values so it was cool to affirm that I'm not that crazy! Here's what was mentioned in the show:

2. Trevor Bauer.

3. List/schedule/to-do list

In the 32nd edition of The Talking Shop Podcast, I share my 3 tips to improving your public speaking. Although public does include formal obligations, public speaking is a part of basically every job you'll do and especially coaching. We're taught WHAT to say, but now HOW to say it. Let's get better together! Here's my three tips:

1. No one is ever going to say you spoke to slow or too loud

2. Not going to

3. Give them all away :)

In the 31st edition of The Talking Shop Podcast, I finally get to record one of my awesome talking shop sessions with Kyle Blackburn. Rooted in volleyball with a desire to continue learning and always be one of the "smarter" people, his own experience gives him many interesting talking points and anecdotes. The title hits on the three main talking points, says it all. Let's get better together! Here's what was mentioned in the show:

-Open by Andre Agassi

In the 30th edition of The Talking Shop Podcast, I elaborate on a 10-paragraph article that completely rocked my brain. It was recommended to me by someone in my network and I believe it's exactly the type of content is needed in today's sports performance world. It's easier to talk about what's great and how to optimize what's already good; but true improvement comes from honest evaluation of what's sub-optimal and how to improve that. Let's get better together! Link to the article:
