In today's THE ESSENTIALS- PASS IT ALONG/PARENTS Podcast, I discuss OVERCOMING ADVERSITY with Paul Weidner, a Certified Sports & Performance Psychologist. The ability to overcome adversity is a game changer for athletes and can improve every aspect of the youth sports experience.The PASS IT ALONG Podcast has two parts. This podcast is for parents, giving you the information needed to help your son or daughter become more skilled in the ability to overcome adversity. The second podcast will be for the athlete, sharing with them the techniques to better overcome adversity. We ask you to "pass along" the second podcast to your son or daughter.
