Скачать или смотреть We Quit Our Sports. Now We're Helping Girls Stay and Lead with Confidence

We both quit our sports despite being talented. Here's what girls actually need to stay in the game → https://trainhergame.com/mom

Girls are quitting sports at twice the rate of boys by age 14. But it's not about talent or access.

The real reason? Mental game. Fear of judgment, anxiety, pressure to perform, low confidence.

In this episode, my co-founder Kristina and I are sharing our personal stories about quitting our sports. Stories we don't usually tell.

Kristina was a basketball starter who quit her senior year because she physically couldn't shoot anymore. Not because she lost her skills, but because she couldn't handle the pressure of standing out and the fear of friends getting mad at her for being too good.

I turned down college volleyball offers after my senior year because the emotional cost felt unbearable. Between my parents' divorce and perfectionism, I felt like I was failing everyone no matter what I did.

We both came back to our sports later. But we shouldn't have had to quit in the first place to find peace.

That's why we built The Elite Competitor and the Play, Stay, Lead mission.
