Full Episode Description:
In this episode of Lead From The Line, Coach Mak tackles one of the toughest challenges dads face in youth sports: balancing the role of coach with the role of father. When you coach your own child, the lines can get blurry fast — expectations get higher, emotions get louder, and the relationship can take hits you never intended.

Coach Mak breaks down the invisible but critical difference between Coach Mode and Dad Mode, and why your child needs both — but never at the same time. You’ll learn how to communicate in ways that build trust, confidence, and emotional safety for your son, even in high-pressure moments.

This episode also exposes the truth about the car ride home — the moment many well-meaning dads unknowingly damage their child’s love for the game. With clear tools, calm strategies, and leadership-driven parenting techniques, you’ll walk away with a better understanding of how to support your kid on and off the field.

Whether you're coaching football, soccer, baseball, or simply leading your child through life, this episode will help you protect your relationship, strengthen your bond, and become the leader your son looks up to — not just the coach he listens to.

What You’ll Learn:

• How to switch between Coach Mode and Dad Mode with intention
• Why the car ride home is NOT the time to coach
• How your reactions shape your child’s confidence
• How to protect and strengthen your father–son relationship
• Why emotional control matters more than tactical coaching

A must-listen for every dad who coaches their own kid — and every parent who wants to build trust, confidence, and long-term connection.

Description:
In this episode of Lead From The Line, Coach [Your Name] talks about one of the most important responsibilities we have as dads and coaches: raising young men who are strong in character, not just skilled in sports. Because someday, the games will end — but who they become will last forever.

We break down how football teaches responsibility, discipline, humility, work ethic, and resilience in ways everyday life often can’t. You’ll learn how to use wins, losses, pressure, and even mistakes as powerful opportunities to shape your son’s mindset and identity.

This episode is a blueprint for growing boys into leaders — not just athletes — through intentional coaching and consistent parenting.

Key Takeaways:

• Sports build character when adults focus on development, not performance
• Kids remember how you spoke to them long after they forget the score
• Accountability + encouragement creates long-term growth
• You’re preparing them for life, not just the next game

If you want to raise a man of integrity, confidence, and resilience, this episode is your playbook.
