Welcome to the 48th Monday Reset for Sports Parents — a short reflection inside The Youth Sports Parenting Tribe.Each Monday Reset brings you one word, one idea, and one mindset to help you start the week calm, clear, and connected.This week's word is Quit.One of the most loaded words in youth sports.When a child says "I don't want to do this anymore," most of us push back.

I was able to learn how to do it all without yelling, nagging, rescuing, or controlling. Love and Logic entails more empathy,

Grief doesn’t always arrive when you expect it—or look the way you thought it would. It can sneak into ordinary moments, surprise you years later, and change parts of you that you never saw coming. In this episode, we talk honestly about the unpredictable nature of grief, the ways loss can reshape us, and what it means to keep living while carrying someone or something we’ve lost. If grief has caught you off guard lately, you’re not doing it wrong—and you’re not alone. Follow Previa Alliance!...
