How many challenges does a young top-level athlete face?

Dealing with fears, maintaining confidence, digesting successes, assimilating defeats, managing blocks…

Being an athlete is an important challenge. So is being an adolescent.

Adolescence is a momentous, beautiful, and complex period. Add being a high-performance player.

Beyond the technical aspects of the sport, there are keys to maintaining the balance between the person and the player. “My son is a crack (and I want him to enjoy it)”, written by Claudia Lopez – title translated from Spanish – contains the author’s experience as a coach, helping adolescent athletes and their families to create bridges.

It contains guidelines and practical exercises based on mindfulness, the study of the Enneagram, interpersonal neurobiology, quantum physics, and narrative coaching.
