Today we are joined for a special episode by former Hardwood Hustle guest, Coach Randi Henderson. Randi is a former PGC Basketball Director and current head women’s basketball coach at Washington University in St. Louis. Recently, she was diagnosed with breast cancer and is currently undergoing regular treatments. In this episode, Randi opens up to share some of the biggest challenges she has been facing, along with incredible wisdom and perspective on the importance of support around you in difficult times, and how to handle your mind from going down the inevitable worrying rabbit holes that come up during hardships. This episode is sure to inspire you, and we’d love if you could join the Hardwood Hustle team in supporting Randi’s fight (https://www.gofundme.com/f/coach-henderson-blessing).
In this episode, Adam and TJ tackle the tough question facing coaches across the country. How do you lead a team knowing there may not even be a season? The episode covers how much coaches can lead, push, and motivate their teams through this uncertainty. We hope this episode helps you begin to navigate your upcoming pre-season and increases your confidence in the ability you have to lead your team no matter what happens this season.
