In this powerful and honest conversation, Yancy shares his personal journey of learning how to coach—not just athletes, but his own kids. As a professional fighter, mentor, and father, he opens up about the unique challenges of balancing those roles and how his approach to coaching continues to evolve.
We dive deep into the heart of what it really means to coach: the balance between teaching, accountability, and connection. Yancy and Andrew discuss how the landscape of coaching has changed from the “follow the program or get out” mentality to one that encourages communication and mutual understanding. They explore how generational shifts, parenting styles, and life experiences shape the way people learn and respond to coaching.
Ultimately, this episode highlights that great coaching goes far beyond sets, reps, and technique. It’s about learning how to reach people where they’re at, challenge them to grow, and build trust over time. Whether you’re a coach, athlete, or parent, this conversation will help you reflect on how to foster more meaningful and effective coaching relationships.
