This week I'm sitting down with Alejandro De Mendoza, also known as @thevolleyballcoach! Alejandro is the club director at Momentous Volleyball Club in California, a coach with over a decade in the sport, and someone who spent years working alongside the USA Women's National Team. We get into growth mindset and why that one little word "yet" is more powerful than you think, the difference between internal and external confidence and how people pleasing shows up in athletes more than we talk about, what it actually takes to build elite team culture, how his experiences changed the way he coaches, and what he wishes was different about youth volleyball development in the United States.
