Impactful Car Rides
Over the last decade, I’ve had the privilege of working with hundreds of young athletes and families across Northwest Indiana and beyond. What I’ve learned is that soccer — and youth sports in general — is about so much more than wins, losses, and scholarships. It’s about development. It’s about helping our kids build confidence, resilience, and a lifelong love for the game.
But somewhere along the way, many of us — coaches and parents alike — have felt the growing weight of pressure: the pay-to-play systems, the car ride critiques, the constant comparison to others. I believe it’s time for a reset.
That’s why I’m starting a new conversation — one rooted in connection over correction, patience over pressure, and love over results. Together, I want us to explore a developmental mindset for parenting and coaching. One that embraces the long car rides, the tough losses, the quiet moments, and the joy of watching our kids grow into confident, passionate young people.
This is an invitation to every parent, coach, and supporter who believes that the journey matters just as much as the scoreboard.
Let’s change the way we raise our kids through sports — one conversation, one reflection, and one game at a time.
“The car ride home should feel like love, not analysis.”
— Coach Lucas Sabedra
