  • The Power of Words - What Is Your Conversation in the House?

    What is the conversation going on in the house? 

    What about the coaches, what are the words they are using? 

    You cannot even understand the impact of the words.

    Power of words.

    And the super power is rephrasing them when necessary.

  • When It Comes to Extreme Sports POSITIONING is Everything

    Positioning is everything!

    What does that even mean - positioning?

    Where you are in the world matters to the sport your kid wants to grow in.

    For example, we live in Central America, even though my kids have done snowboarding several times and were amazing at it. So much so that the instructors I hired to work with them the several weeks we were on the slopes, were doing all they can to figure out how they could join the team and continue.

    But our reality was, we live in Guatemala, and at the end of each conversation, we all knew this was an impossibility unless we moved where there is snow.

    So you can’t want your kid to be a surfer when you live 100 miles from the closest ocean.

    You need to get real about your ‘positioning’.

  • Orchestration in Sports: What Is it and Why Is It Important for Extreme Sports

    What is orchestration and what does it have anything to do with your extreme sports and your kid?

    Who in your family is the one that makes it all happen? 

    I’m not talking about the actual activity of the sport, but ALL the rest.

    For example, who is arranging the meetings with new coaches? Driving to practices. Or confirming for the competition and the travel plans that need arranging.

    This is just the tip of the iceberg. 

    Most of the time the person who is doing the orchestrating makes it look so natural that the kids feel like they are the ones that came up with everything. 

    This way no one even realizes that there was a whole thing going on in the background.

    Someone in the house needs to be the orchestrator, because if not, then very little will move forward.

    Who is doing the orchestration in the house?

    Work ethic is everything PERIOD

    This is not something you’re born with, it’s learned, practiced and repeated

  • Distraction and Focus in Sports and Life

    Distraction big deal today right?  It's a hot topic, yet the important stuff isn't talked about.

    With all the social media apps, and electronics and everything else bombarding our kids and us every waking second of the day, we need to take a deeper look at what distraction is about.

    But this episode isn’t about THOSE kinds of distractions

    I’m talking about the difference between focused magic vs. distractedness when you are not doing what you love.

    I’m going to dive into why kids get distracted yet when it comes to their sport they are so present and how this can be used for all parts of their lives and we all can learn from them.

  • Are Kids the Decision Makers When It Comes to Their Sport?

    Who are the decision makers when it comes to your kid's sport? 

    Let's make this very, very, very clear.   Kids in extreme sports are not the decision makers. 

    They could be the motivators, the ones that come up with ideas.  But they aren’t the ones that make the final decision. 

    Learn more in this episode what I’m talking about when I mean Decision Makers.

  • Death to YouTube and Other Ways to Help Your Kid

    Death to Youtube - you’re probably saying - What?!? 

    WHY?!?

    Here’s the thing, I have nothing against YouTube. On the contrary I think there are great AMAZING things to watch and learn on YouTube.

    But here’s what my biggest concern is and I can see how this is affecting my kids and their abilities

    When it comes to sports, especially Extreme Sports, what do you see on YouTube? The wins, the new tricks, the crazy extreme shit that we know is done.

    In this episode I talk about why there aren’t any videos showing the trial and error, the hardships, the heart aches, the work that goes behind all the successes.

    Because that's the truth.

    My kids are watching YouTube and are constantly putting their favorite athletes on pedestals and almost feeling like they can never get to where they are.

    But they forget, that it took years and many many hours and attempts to do what we are seeing in these videos.

    I personally believe that the best YouTube channels that are going to be really helpful are the ones that show the crap that you have to go through. The heartache, the sadness, the work. 

    I get it’s important to be watching the athletes show what they do best, so you can see where you can see the outcome. 

    But let’s never forget the COME-UP.

  • Recovering From Losses: How to Help Your Athlete Deal with Losses

    Dealing with losses in sports is crucial to how your kid bounces back.

    There's no possible way to go around this. This is one of the more devastating parts of it all, but it is an absolute necessity. 

    It strengthens your child.

    It's what goes on in the house. The conversation is completely part of what is going to go on in the kid's heads and how they work through the process.

    What about the injustices? What about the day that your son or daughter,  have to qualify in  competition and they get sick. Or they get injured and a totally lesser kid who has barely put any work gets to do that competition? 

    In this episode we talk about how to discuss these situations properly and how to make sense of it all, while still moving forward with confidence.

  • Finding Your Kid's (Deep) Connection to Their Sport: How to Get Your Kids Interested in Sports

    What is your kids true connection to the sport?

    It’s not what you think. And this is what will keep your child committed vs. quitting prematurely.

    Learning where the connection begins and planting the roots to keep the child truly inspired in their sport is going to surprise you.

    Example: If the parent is the one to introduce the child to the sport, there is a higher chance the kid will continue because it’s a bond that the child can have with their parent.

    However, if a parent or someone close to the child can’t find the time to bring them to practice, or the skate park or the rock or whatever their sport outlet is, chances are the interest will die out for the kid.

    Find out the real truth and deep rootedness that will keep your child loving what they are doing and so much more …
