6 - Erika Vujnovich talks about the real sports mom of Westchester County
from The Flirty Vegan · host Vegan Lifestyle Coach: Jenny Cheifetz
Erika Vujnovich is a former Ivy League tennis player who is now raising two athletes of her own: a 16-year old nationally ranked tennis player and a 13-year old baseball player. She is a true sports enthusiast with a passion discussing sports parenting issues as well as the importance of introducing sports to children at a young age.Erika's Notes from the Sidelines: Being a sports parent means juggling: finances (camps, clubs, private lessons, teams, sports psychologists, gear), work schedules, social schedules with friends, and spending quality time with family, knowing it will mean missing out on special occasions, because being there for big tournaments and games is important to the athlete's future. Being an athlete means sacrifice and a lingering feeling of, "Are we missing something," which leads to a lot of stress. Erika's best advice to new moms is to get kids involved in sports as soon as possible because of the many benefits: In sports, there are winners and losers, and we must acknowledge that our children are going to lose. There is nothing like the feeling of connection for sports moms. (So please join Jentle Coaching for the first Facebook Live Sports Mom Connection Call on Tuesday, February 13, at 7pm ET) Have fun.
