What Coaching Can Do For You

As a sports parent who is trying to give your child a positive youth sports experience, are you running into any of these problems?

Over-involved, pushy sports parents.

Your child is disappointed with his playing time.

Conflicts with your child’s coach.

Your child feels burdened with expectations.

You feel stressed out because you are too busy.

I can help you deal with these problems and the many others you will face as your child plays sports. I know that your child and your family are unique, so there is not a one-size-fits-all answer to deal with all the problems you and your child will face as he or she plays sports.

Why I can Help:

I’m Janis Meredith, coach’s wife for 3 decades, sports mom for 21 years and life coach.

I can coach you through these specific challenges:

playing time struggles
coaching conflicts
helping your child with mental battles
dealing with negative parents
your personal struggle to let go and let the coach do his job
your personal struggle to not push your child
time management

I can help you deal with all of these and on top of that, I want to teach you a method for coaching your own child through any problem he or she will face.

Before I started working with Janis, my mind felt like several yarn strings mangled together. I didn’t know where one string started or ended and how to untie them. Having worked with her for a few months, I didn’t turn a 180 in my life but she did work with me to create my own tools to unravel things little by little. During the process, I realized that I need to have less strings to have balance in my life by creating boundaries and margins for myself. I’m a work in progress but I do feel that, at least, I have the tools to use to work on myself.
