Coaches, parents, and Pack members: the Classroom now has a home for recordings from the live Solutions Lab with Coach JT. If you miss a session or want to revisit part of the conversation, this is where you’ll find the replay once it’s posted. Replays are coming soon. This is where you’ll find them: https://www.skool.com/trainwithpack/classroom/c8be1bdf?md=8ad33247f3f34338bbf5dcbb03b457f3 Access is included with PACK Premium, including during an eligible Premium free trial.

One example is enough: “I want my assistants to run stations, but I take over when we fall behind.” That gives us something to work on together. We’ll name the outcome, trace the moment the old pattern returns, and build a small change to test. Already in Premium? You can come with a situation or listen to how another coach works through theirs. Either way, the live calendar is where you’ll find the next session. We meet on the first and third Thursdays, 7–9 p.m. Mountain. Want to work through a situation with us?

Pack Nation, we’re starting a live working session on the first and third Thursdays of each month, from 7–9 p.m. Mountain. Bring a real situation you keep running into. We’ll get clear on what you want to create, look at how things work today, and change the setup that keeps producing the same result. Say you want players to run warmups, but every delay ends with you taking over. We can work on who owns each station and when you step in. You’ll leave with a change you can test at practice and a way to tell if it helped. The next two calls are December 3 and 17. Want to work through a situation with us?

A familiar pattern can show up after a win, too. A team has one great practice with players running warmups. The next time there’s a little confusion, the coach takes over and runs the whole thing again. That’s an internal thermostat moment. The new approach is starting to work, but the old routine still feels easier to trust. The useful detail is the moment the switch happens: the first delay, the first missed assignment, or the first time the coach has to wait instead of stepping in. Join the conversation: When have you seen progress in your program and still felt pulled back to the old way of doing things?

Pack Nation, I’m opening a conversation about what I call the internal thermostat. It’s a simple metaphor for the familiar response we return to when the moment gets uncomfortable. Say your goal is to coach with more patience. Then practice gets behind, a drill breaks down, and you hear yourself rushing through instructions again. That moment gives you something specific to notice: what happened right before you went back to the old response. We’ll look at this from the field, the dugout, the stands, and the business side of coaching. The examples will look different, but the starting point is the same: notice the pattern before deciding what to do with it.
