Join Diane Schroeder as she chats with Heather Dirk about the multifaceted challenges and rewards of being a baseball mom. In this episode, Heather reveals her journey in authoring a must-read book for sports parents, filled with humor and tips on managing gear, understanding tryouts, and surviving those long tournament weekends. Discover the life lessons learned on and off the field, the value of early scheduling, and the importance of fostering a sense of community among sports families. If you've ever juggled between supporting your child and managing your sanity, this episode offers relatable advice and inspiration.

Heather Dirck grew up in Colorado and still calls it home. After earning degrees in journalism and strategic communication from the University of Missouri she began her career, which she's dedicated to outreach for AmeriCorps NCCC, an awesome national service program. Back in high school, Heather thought she might write a book one day. A few decades later, she got around to it. She lives with her amazing family: her husband, her two sons (her favorite baseball players), two golden retrievers, and a cat who thinks he's a golden retriever. Baseball mom since 2015.
