The Parent Room on Patreon
The Parent Room is my membership on Patreon. You’ll get a deeper dive for parents who want more connection, more conversation, and more support throughout the season.
Members get access to exclusive posts, behind-the-scenes thoughts, monthly audio or video reflections, and practical tools to use with their kids.
It's like having a coach in your corner helping you trust your instincts and stay steady. Whether you're looking for answers or just need a reminder that you're doing enough, you'll find good company here.
Team Talks
These dynamic, in-person sessions are designed to spark meaningful conversations with the adults who shape a young athlete's experience.
Whether it's a parent night, a pre-season meeting, or a special event, I offer a mix of reflection, encouragement, and insight that leaves everyone thinking differently about their role in youth sports.
If you're looking to inspire your parent community in a thoughtful and authentic way, let’s talk.
Who are these services designed for?
Everything I offer is designed for parents of young athletes, from beginners to experienced competitors. Whether your child is just starting out or has been playing for years, you’ll find insights and tools to support both their growth and yours.
What makes Raising the Game different?
I blend my personal experience and my academic background with years of coaching and parenting to offer a well-rounded perspective. You’ll get honest, thoughtful advice rooted in both research and real life.
Is the newsletter really free?
Yes! The Raising the Game newsletter is completely free.
Do I need to be a sports expert to benefit?
Not at all! You don’t need a background in sports. These resources are built for everyday parents who want to better understand the youth sports world and how to help their kids thrive within it.
How can I bring a Team Talk to my club or team?
You can reach out through the contact page to start a conversation. I’ll work with you to customize a talk or workshop that fits your needs, schedule, and audience.
Can I schedule a virtual Team Talk ?
While Team Talks are designed as in-person workshops, some sessions or related content may be offered virtually. Contact me to discuss your virtual options.
