Ep 35 Club coach says skip school ball. school coach says stay. who wins?

https://heysammi.com/  what do you do when your child's coaches disagree about where she should play? a mom in louisville wrote to me caught between an aau coach pushing specialization and a school coach pulling the other way. in this episode i offer the reframe that changes everything: she's not stuck between two truths. she's stuck between two interests, and neither coach is neutral. i give you the two questions to ask each coach separately. what's your plan for her, specifically? and what does she lose under your plan? because a coach worth trusting can name the cost of his own advice, and a coach who says his path costs nothing is selling. plus the pronoun tell: coaches focused on her development say her name, coaches protecting a program say we and us. then the voice missing from the entire fight, hers, and the question that cuts through: which locker room is she happier walking into? i also cover the overlap reality, the load question when seasons collide, the boundary that ends the tug of war, adults negotiate with adults, and the annual family review that keeps the rope in the drawer.
