Coach A vs. Coach B

In the book, Jessica shares Patrick's story about Coach A and Coach B. Coach A berates a young girl after she makes a mistake during a soccer game, while Coach B offers support and guidance. Jessica encourages readers to ask themselves, 'What would Coach B say?' and adopt a coaching mindset rather than criticizing themselves. This shift can help in overcoming self-doubt and promoting a positive approach to handling mistakes or setbacks.
