  • It's Time to Change the Conversation Around College and Sports Training

    Changing the conversation about sending your kid to college vs. investing in their athletic training.

    Once it is evident that your child not only has the goods, but passion, commitment and readiness maybe it's time to focus on those attributes.

    And instead of saving for your kid's college education - why not save up for your kids training?

    How about taking that money and putting it into their athletic abilities?

    Here’s the thing - today it’s totally normal to get an education regardless of your age. 

    It’s totally normal to go through several careers changes.

    But the hard core reality  is that the best years an athlete can give is when they are young. So why not invest in that? Why not really nurture all that goes with their athletic abilities.

    Besides, many university, if they see real potential in kid's abilities will give them scholarships anyway.

    And if nothing else, the experience of the training, the work, the discipline they get - that alone will change everybody's lives for the better. Including the parents!

    Let’s change the conversation around this!

  • What Does it Take to Become a Champion: Becoming an Athletic Star

    The age old question: does my kid have what it takes to become a star? 

    Let’s not fool ourselves by pretending we don’t care about this, we all do. We want to know if our kid has what it takes.

    What will it take to get them there? 

    In this episode we talk a lot about that, but one thing that really stuck out for me when my kids started climbing was:

    Our first climbing coach once told me, that every kid who he trains, their parents come to him and ask, 'so is my kid a champion?'

    And his response ALWAYS IS -  talk to me in 5 years.
