  • Well done

    Some excellent thinkers in the game of volleyball on what a coach should be. Jason has been one of my “mentors” in my journey as a coach. Well done in bringing his thoughts and stories to our learning process. Keep em coming.

  • Motivating and entertaining

    This podcast goes beyond volleyball. As a parent I find myself thinking about my own individual children, their needs and struggles and how I can be a better “coach” to them in life. Highly recommend and love Thompson as the facilitator and host of these conversations. She’s superb.
