EP21: How to become a coach? David Kitchen of Edge Leadership Academy explains

On this episode of "Into the Unknown" David Kitchen, Founder & President of Edge Leadership Academy. In a testament to resilience, David 'Kitch' Kitchen shares his journey from the tough streets of Harrisburg to becoming a beacon of hope and success as a business owner and coach. On my latest podcast episode, I sit down with David to unravel his stirring narrative, marked by the steadfast support of his single mother and the shadows of an abusive stepfather. Kitch's love for football not only offered him an escape but also paved the way for a future brimming with possibilities. As we exchange stories, I reflect on my own unexpected journey from high school football coach to the youngest head strength coach in the country, spurred by a detour from injury to the weight room. Our conversation celebrates life's serendipitous turns, emphasizing the joy of discovering and pursuing one's passion. Together, we explore pivotal moments where daring decisions shape destiny, inspiring listeners to embrace the unknown and bet on themselves, just as Kitch did when he transitioned from IT sales to coaching, propelled by unwavering family support. Join me, Jeremy Swick, on "Into the Unknown," a podcast that delves into personal journeys, stories, and experiences of individuals across diverse professions. As a historian by trade, I firmly believe that our personal histories shape our present and offer valuable insights into our paths ahead. With that being said lets get into it!
