In this powerful and heartfelt episode, we sit down with Brad Burden — former pro kayaker 🛶, kayak instructor, now basketball coach 🏀 and teacher — as he shares his evolving journey through leadership, parenting, and self-awareness 💬.
Brad gets real about what it's like to:
🔄 Recognize when your old ways of coaching and parenting just aren't working anymore
🧠 Support a child through mental health challenges with compassion and humility
🧘♂️ Let go of the need to always "fix" and instead learn how to simply be present
👥 Lead with self-awareness, even when it means putting your own emotions aside
🌊 Apply lessons from whitewater kayaking to the wild ride of life, parenting, and leadership
Whether you're a parent, coach, teacher, or just someone trying to show up better for the people in your life, Brad's insights will resonate deeply ❤️.
This episode is an honest, vulnerable look at how we grow — not by having all the answers, but by learning to listen and respond to what the moment is truly asking of us 🔍✨.
