My Students

My students (& soccer players) from Nashville, TN are part of a school that teaches kids how to connect their heads with their hearts. We exist to empower our diverse community to live inspired, purposeful lives. At Valor, our kids are pushed to perform with excellence in terms of academics, but also believe that needs to be balanced with a big heart - learning kindness, empathy, and how to be a part of a community. As a coach, I see the soccer field as a training ground for life - making sure each player leaves the program as a leader in their community with the tools needed to build relationships and influence those in their circles. My players genuinely LOVE one another, especially in their differences, and understand what it means to put the TEAM FIRST.

My Project

These materials will be used to 1) train soccer players to the best of our ability and 2) teach our diverse kids how to become better leaders in a world that will fight against them. The world tells us it's a dog eat dog society.. you have to beat people to be the best. But we believe that we can teach our kids differently... that it's not all about them. That the best leadership is one that serves. That there's room for everyone at the table. Help us get them to believe these things about themselves and our world!
