I want to be open about my struggle with depression. I’m in a much better place now, but I hope this helps anyone else who is going through the same thing. 🩵 @PlayersTribune theplayerstribune.com/lauren…

Are you a coach or a dictator? 🚌💨 If your team falls apart the second you stop talking, you aren’t "essential"—you’re a bottleneck. Real coaching happens in practice so that when the game starts, the players own the court. If they need you to be a "joystick coach" for every move, they haven’t learned how to play; they’ve only learned how to follow directions. The Goal: Be a guide, not a dictator. Key takeaway: ❌ Dictators control every action. ✅ Guides provide rotations, reminders, and support. Tag a coach who needs to hear this! 👇 #coachinglife #leadership #basketballcoach #teamculture #sportspsychology
