Parenting beyond contests

I thought this audiobook was filled with practical and empathetic approaches to supporting athletes. What stood out most was how it addressed the fine line between encouraging kids and pushing them too hard—a struggle I imagine many parents face. The insights feel relatable and thoughtful without being overly preachy. I appreciated that the advice focused on mental resilience, which seems universally beneficial, even outside of sports. While some ideas felt familiar, the book tied them together in a way that clicks. If you’re a parent wanting to help your child grow through sports, this feels like time well spent.

Helping my son feel confident on the court!

As a parent, I’ve always want to support my son without making him feel too pressured. This book gave me some simple strategies to encourage him while also helping him manage his nerves before games. We’ve started trying a few mindfulness exercises together, and I can already see him handling stress better. I’m excited to keep using these ideas as he grows in sports—and in life. It’s great to have some tools that work for both of us!
