I want to thank my friend for sharing this article. As a parent and as a coach I find such sincere relevance in the essence of this article. We oftentimes get wrapped up in the forward motion of life, in fear of our own children falling short, when in reality we must have the ability to hit the brakes and recognize whether the race we are in and maybe whether the way we are leading our children is for the best. Awareness of ourselves and our children needs to be at an all time high!!!
I recently reposted a trending quote that read “we have to put the person before the student and the athlete otherwise we are at risk of losing all three.” The post was written in the wake of the passing of Katie Meyer, a standout goalie for the women’s soccer team at Stanford.
