  In this episode, Dr. Jen Fry—a former Division I volleyball coach turned expert on communication and conflict in youth sports—unpacks why the toughest moments in sports often have little to do with the game itself. Drawing on her experience coaching at the highest levels and now working with athletes, coaches, and parents, she dives into the fine line between support and pressure, the real sources of tension between parents and coaches, and how young athletes can learn to advocate for themselves.

  Ep 84 Sports Physicals: What Every Parent Needs to Know

  Jul 9, 202635 minS1

  Most parents schedule their athlete's sports physical to check a box before the season starts—but Scott Galloway, an athletic trainer who's worked with high school athletes and hospital sports medicine systems, reveals why that's a missed opportunity. A sports physical isn't just paperwork; it's your chance to identify potential injury risks, uncover medical concerns, ask the right questions, and build the right healthcare team around your athlete. In this episode, Scott walks parents through the biggest mistakes made before a physical, the warning signs that deserve attention, why nutrition should be part of the conversation, and what every parent should know before their child steps on the field. Whether your athlete is dealing with injury recovery, training at high intensity, or just starting their sports journey, this episode will change how you approach the annual sports physical—and your athlete's overall health.
