This chapter highlights the sacrifices made by Team USA coaches as they support their athletes, emphasizing the need for purpose and self-awareness in coaching. It advocates for a balanced approach that prioritizes both competition and the personal well-being of athletes.
America's top athletes need coaches. And those coaches themselves need guidance. It's a hard and stressful job - and one where coaches can easily become burned out and unhappy. And stressed coaches can't help their athletes win medals.
Christine Bolger and Emilie Lazenby of the US Olympic and Paralympic Committee teach happiness lessons - many they heard on this podcast - to America's elite coaches. They share their story with Dr Laurie and tell us what regular folk can learn from top coaches.
