Episode 26: The One Thing

After thirty-five years of coaching, what is the one thing Long wishes every coach, leader, and parent understood — that almost none of them do? This episode follows that question all the way down. Through the score beneath the score. Through the coach's own invisible scoreboard. Through what behaviour communicates before any words are spoken. And through what childhood leaves behind in every athlete who will ever stand across the net from you. One idea. Every layer of it.
