One day you’re cheering on your kid for picking clovers in the outfield, the next you’re asking yourself: “Is my kid… special?” and googling special clinics in the area. We’ve been through the highs and lows, and that’s why we were so excited to sit down with former NFL All-Pro and award-winning broadcaster Greg Olsen in today’s show. Greg is on a mission to make youth sports healthier and more balanced through his platform <a href=\"https://www.youth.inc/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Youth Inc</a><em>.</em> He knows both sides of the game: he was part of that 0.02% who actually made it to the pros, and now he’s a dad coaching kids in today’s pressure-packed youth leagues.</p><p><br></p><p>We talk about what’s broken (spoiler: it’s mostly us parents), how to keep sports fun for kids, and what Greg would do if he were the “czar” of youth sports. He also shares how he personally dealt with career setbacks (yes, even after Super Bowls and broadcast booths), and why the real goal in sports isn’t the scholarship or the contract—it’s the process of showing up and growing. Stay tuned for Penn’s Top 5 Changes to Youth Sports at the end. Maybe you’ll start keeping Penn points for your kids games!&nbsp;We love to hear from you, leave us a message at 323-364-3929 or write the show at <a href=\"mailto:podcast@theholdernessfamily.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">podcast@theholdernessfamily.com</a>.
