On today's episode, I sat down with Linda Flanagan who is the author of the new book "Take Back the Game - How Money and Mania are Ruining Kids' Sports". This conversation may be one of the most important conversations that we've ever had on the podcast as youth sports has taken a dramatic downward turn over the last few decades.

In this conversation we discuss:

  • How competitive youth sports affect family dynamics
  • The role money plays in perpetuating the problem
  • How parents are being manipulated by sports corporations
  • The importance of letting your kids lead and play without supervision
  • Why parents need to get their own life instead of being so heavily invested in their kids' sports
  • and so much more!
