Playoff 2022 Special

In this episode, Shawna and Jen visit with Amber Ivy of Aubrey, Texas.  Amber and her family have lived in many places and as a coach's wife and she shares her experience. 

One event that played a big role in their lives is her husband's battle with Guillain-barré syndrome.  Amber shares about this difficult time but tells us how this burden becomes a blessing and how she fought to keep hope alive.  
The ladies also discuss: 

  • changing a culture
  • feelings after a playoff loss
  • adjusting to having your husband home after the season is over
  • the grieving process of a loss
  • how it gets harder every year
  • the highs and lows of the playoffs

Amber tells us the hard part of being a coach's wife. We also get to hear about how one young man helped grow the student section at Aubrey HS.

Her favorite playoff memory proves that you should never quit playing until the clock runs out. Amber's advice on what she wishes she would have learned about being a coach's wife is great for new wives to know and consider.
