Believe, Begin, Become: A Goal-Setting Chat with My 14-Year-Old (Episode 61)
About this episode
Today’s episode is extra special—I'm joined by my youngest son, Jack, for a six-month check-in on the goals he set at the start of the year! From pitching milestones to bench press PRs and a shift in mindset around school, we talk about what it really takes to set and achieve goals—at any age.
Together, we explore:
- The power of writing goals down (and keeping them visible)
- Why belief and consistency matter more than perfection
- How accountability can make all the difference
- Jack’s new goals and what he’s learning along the way
This conversation is part parenting, part coaching, and full of heart—and it’s a great reminder that small, consistent steps lead to big wins.
Whether you're helping your kids set goals or working on your own, I hope this episode leaves you encouraged to keep showing up and dreaming big.
