In this episode of Catching You, Rusty and Lacie Ham dive into the realities of college life, the challenges of Division I softball, and the emotional journey of preparing for graduation. With just five months left before Lacie earns her degree, the father-daughter duo reflects on what it means to transition into a new phase of life.
Lacie shares her frustrations about the pressure of answering “What’s next?” while advocating for celebrating the moment of accomplishment. They explore the mental toll of living a rigorous softball schedule, the value of attack-mode mentality in sports, and the importance of a positive team environment. From endless practices to the complexities of coaching dynamics, Lacie opens up about the highs and lows of her career and the lessons learned along the way.
The discussion also tackles the impact of social media trends, including TikTok stories about collegiate experiences, and how they shape the perceptions of incoming athletes. Lacie emphasizes the privilege and sacrifices that come with being a Division I athlete while highlighting the significance of mental health, personal growth, and finding joy beyond the field.
A couple of years ago, as a family, we created family core values. One of them is, "We face challenges with optimism while displaying a growth mindset." We wanted to tell our story so others, who relate, can navigate through these challenges better.
