Elementary School Educator and Coach Lauren Christ shares her experiences as a player and coach in women's sports, discussing progress and needed changes in this interview.
In Episode 039, I got to speak with one of the most inspiring people that I know, Nicole Saulnier. I met Nicole when she was a student pursuing her physical therapy degree, and the conversations that we had just blew me away. Her dedication to her craft, her vision for her future, and just her perspectives on life in general made me come away from each chat feeling ready to take on the world.During our discussion, we covered how she came to complete the New York City marathon, what it's been like seeing her dream through of becoming a physical therapist (and completing her program at the height of the Covid pandemic!), what her experiences were like as both a young female athlete and growing up in a sports-centric household with two athlete brothers, and, perhaps best of all, what it was like visiting Kangaroo Island and holding koalas during a study abroad adventure in Australia.Full 4k video of our chat is available here: https://youtu.be/OfCZT0Pheu8Please be sure to give the video a like and the channel a follow, and please consider leaving the podcast a 5 star review on Spotify or Apple Podcasts--it helps a lot more than you know! Thanks as always for listening!#PhysicalTherapy #PhysicalTherapist #NYCMarathon #Marathoner #MarathonFinisher #RunnersLife #Running #Australia #KangarooIsland #Koalas

Episode 038 Interview with Coach Sha Parland
In Episode 038, I sat down with one of my all-time favorite youth coaches, Sha Parland. Sha coaches the Ocean tackle football team, the Neptune travel basketball team, and his son's AAU basketball team. He's also the father of a collegiate athlete and former two-sport star with his older son.During our discussion, Sha and I covered the current state of youth basketball, his experience in going through the process of coaching his young athletes two times, and the differences in the sports landscape between those two stints. Sha truly embodies what coaching should be about, and he was kind enough to share some personal anecdotes that highlight the incredible character that he has--just one aspect of many that I've grown to respect about him throughout the years.Full 4k video of our discussion is available here: https://youtu.be/uvP-uTBwmZsPlease be sure to give the video a like and consider subscribing to the channel! Both go a long way in helping to support the podcast. And if you're able to leave a 5 star review wherever you stream your podcasts, that would be much appreciated as well!#Coaching #TackleFootball #AAUBasketball #TravelBasketball #OceanTackleFootball #NeptuneTravelBasketball #CollegeAthlete #NCAA #Parenting
