  • In this week’s episode, Maren shares her insights on a controversial yet pressing topic—whether kids' sports are more harmful than helpful to marriages and family dynamics. Drawing from her extensive experience as a former Division 1 head coach and a professional golfer, as well as recent research from the PGA of America, Maren breaks down the pressures and impacts of youth sports on families.

    She also discusses practical solutions for maintaining a healthy balance and encourages parents to make informed decisions that benefit their entire family unit.

    📌 Top 3 Takeaways:

    Balance is Crucial:Over-committing to youth sports can strain marriages and family relationships. It's important to strike a balance that allows for both athletic participation and quality family time.Diversification in Sports:Encouraging kids to play multiple sports rather than specializing early can reduce the risk of burnout and overuse injuries. The PGA of America recommends narrowing it down to three sports before puberty.Parental Involvement Matters:Being present and engaged in your child's sports activities is vital. Parents should focus on quality interactions, offering support and encouragement, rather than just attending to fulfill an obligation.
