What Athletes Wish Their Coaches Knew: A Conversation with Dr. Sara Erdner

from Life Stories Podcast · host Shara Goswick

What if coaches could hear the unspoken thoughts of their athletes?That’s exactly what Dr. Sara Erdner captures in her powerful book Dear Coach—a collection of anonymous, heartfelt letters from athletes to the coaches who shaped them, for better or worse.I don't think this book is just a must-read. I believe it’s an essential read—for every coach, from youth leagues to college programs.I had the honor of speaking with Dr. Erdner on my podcast about the stories behind the letters, the surprising reactions she’s received, and what she’s working on next.
