That kid in these photos wasn’t sporty, wasn’t confident, and definitely wasn’t getting picked first.
And that’s exactly why I coach the way I do.
Because I remember what it felt like walking into something and thinking everyone else just knew what they were doing and I was just… not that person.
So when I tell you to keep it simple, to just show up, to stop waiting until you feel ready, I mean it. Not because it sounds nice, but because it’s what actually works.
And just remember, I’m not special. I’m just someone who’s done this more times than you have.
Coaching isn’t about making you the best in the room. It’s about helping you become someone who keeps turning up.
Confidence comes after, not before. And sometimes it starts with being the one who came last and deciding to go again anyway.
