what obstacles
appear.

What other coaches have shared...

"This playbook carried me through the season in an organized way.

My vision was clear enough to stay the course - while allowing me the flexibility to manage the challenges that came up along the way."

Rachel Judge | New Mexico State University

"I created my playbook at a key time in my coaching career and thought it was extremely beneficial for me to start that next school year on a better note!

It helped me to get grounded and has continually reminded me to be prepared going into each season...and not just roll over old ideas. Each team is different!"

Meet Erica

My focus as a coach is on helping you become the leader you’re meant to be - in all areas of your life.

My approach to working with coaches is unique... because I've been there myself. I coached college swimming for 15 years before transitioning to what I'm doing now.

Since 2012, I've worked with coaches, athletes and teams as a leadership coach, consultant and facilitator. I've helped coaches find their dream jobs or expand as a leader in roles they're currently in. I've helped coaches transition from coaching into other positions they love.

Every coach is different. (Just like every person you coach is different.) You have your own unique skills, gifts and talents that make you who you are.

I want to help you set yourself (and your team) up for success...so you can reach your goals while you have more fun together!

Here's what other coaches have said...

"This playbook gave me great ideas, great resources and the space to decide if and how I wanted to do things with my team. Working through it with a group of other coaches who value the same thing and hear their ideas was also inspiring!"

"It was helpful to talk to coaches who don't know your program and have no emotional attachments to what you are doing and how you are doing it. The playbook provided me with an opportunity to clear my mind and gather all the ideas I needed to move my team forward."

"This playbook exceeded my expectations! I started it with a few general goals for myself. I finished feeling like I had a lot more momentum to be able to start the year off right!

"I was very much overwhelmed with trying to plan how to make our team cohesion activities meaningful and valuable. I was taking on more responsibilities in my role - so I wanted to make sure I had a plan in place before the season. This playbook helped me stay on track and accountable!"

And it doesn't have to stop with you...

Your athletes can join me for two days next summer!

Provide your team captains with 2 days of leadership training to help them gain confidence and see what specific things they can do to step up as leaders.

Give the quiet leaders on your team an opportunity to learn how they can be effective by showing them tangible ways to utilize their natural strengths and talents.

Help the juniors and seniors on your team understand the impact they can have on their teammates - and use their experience to support athletes who are new.

Provide summer leadership training in 2023:

PRE SEASON PLAYBOOK
FOR ATHLETES

In the summer of 2023 I'm leading a
Pre-Season Playbook Workshop...just for athletes

Here are the real benefits for you and your athletes...

Let me introduce these concepts to your athletes. I'll provide the context to get them started. This will help them integrate what you teach them faster than if they're just hearing it for the first time.

The elements they learn will make it easier for you to establish a strong foundation for your team to build on...so you all can hit the ground running when practice begins.

Start the season speaking the same language so your athletes feel like they fit into your team culture and belong on your...the moment that they arrive.

Get a behind-the-scenes look at what your athletes are thinking, feeling, sensing and wanting...before your season even starts.

WHO THIS

IS FOR...

This 2-Day workshop is geared towards college athletes of any sport.

This is also a great opportunity for rising high school juniors and seniors who are eager make a bigger impact on and off the field.

If you have athletes who have the potential to step into a leadership role...these two days can give them more confidence by showing them how.

This experience will help you peel back the layers to see what really motivates and inspires your athletes - so you can build a deeper level of trust that weathers the storms of the season!

Be sure to talk to Erica about special team rates!

WHO THIS
IS NOT FOR...

My goal is to create a positive environment
where each athlete can show up and be honest and real.

To do this, I have three important boundaries and guidelines:

❌ This workshop is not for chronic complainers.

❌ It's not for the athletes who constantly judge, blame or criticize others.

❌ It's not for the athlete who isn't ready to look at themself first or view feedback as a gift and an opportunity to grow.
