Kids, Anxiety, and Sports

Dear Friends,

I wish I could tell you that I am a really good parent when it comes to my kids sports. The truth is, I’m not great. I’m loud, sometimes obnoxious, and probably a little too intense. I was asking my kids if I have ever embarrassed them at a sporting event and it was a quick yes from my oldest.

Honestly, it is an area where I know I need to grow. Something about sports just manages to turn up the intensity for me, and (as I’ve observed) for a lot of other parents.

So, I’m doing the only thing I really know how to do; I’m going to dive into it. Dive into the anxiety, the intensity, and the overall feelings around youth sports. In my latest podcast I give a short teaser (about 15 minutes) of thoughts on the topic. However, over the next four weeks we are going to do a deep dive.

Four weeks, four interviews, and a whole lot of thought. I’m excited to be on this journey with you and I pray that this topic influences you as much as it has influenced me.

Thank you for letting me share this journey with you!

Tony
