We are inspired by a lot of things, art being one of them. Recently, Kyle had a chance to head to an art museum in Dallas where it spurred his thinking about why we as coaches treat the game and our craft like some sort of plug and play exact science. Why can't we be creative? What stands in the way of creating something new or a new style to express our way of doing things? This was a great episode to record and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Former tech executive April Burrows joins the pod to discuss her decision to take a career break. This episode is inspired by her LinkedIn post, where she very openly stated her desire to reflect and get clarity on what she wanted out of her career, life, and her experiences. A compelling episode chock full of tidbits to take away that should, hopefully, make you contemplate finding the time to take a break, too.

Warning: This may devolve into "old guys reminiscing" about "back in my day," but stick with us - there's a point here. We dive deep into how PLAY, not sport, shaped us. And why PLAY matters and how we can recapture some of that magic in the current state of things. A great episode filled with good laughs and memories. We know you can relate!

Ball is not life. There, we said it. In this episode, we dive into where sport is currently, what's missing, and the dehumanization of athletes and coaches into characters in a soap opera. Some very heavy questions, realizations, and clarity coming forth in a big way!

Do Adults Get in the Way? To be clear, we are not painting with a broad brush. There are plenty of adults - parents, coaches, administrators, etc, who do it the right way and empower kids to learn, grow, make mistakes, and set clear boundaries of acceptable behavior. However, as we've gone into the "architect parents" era - we can't help but wonder whether adults are doing more harm than good.

Work/Life balance as we know it is dead. It's all about integration, now. Fitting life around work and work around life to make it one big jumble. Part I focuses on the adults - how do we do it? Part II will focus on the kids.

Perfectionism is a hustle.
Yet, our youth and subsequent generations are suffering at the hands of "perfect," being the enemy of their GOOD or GREAT.
Perfect is not a thing. However, we can lean into the details that make Good, Better, and Best happen. How? Let's talk about it.

So...this episode wasn't at all part of the plan. It just kind of happened. We had a topic we wanted to talk about, but instead you get the unfiltered, raw conversation that followed a series of questions and thoughts posed by both of us. This is what we do on ECC.

This may be the most asked yet least important question in the history of recruiting. Yet...we continue to hear it, almost as if it's been doubled down upon as a necessity to make decisions. Let's talk about it.

Yeah. We said it. Just because you played doesn't mean squat when it comes to coaching. Let's talk about it.
