Day 4 of CHD Mini-Camp: Mindset & Mental Recovery
One bad shift. One rough weekend. One emotional post-game chirp from the backseat. That’s all it takes to send a kid’s confidence into a spiral.
In Day 4 of Mini-Camp, Scott and Jamie go deep on what it really takes to keep your player mentally upright when things get messy. From post-game meltdowns to “two stars and a wish” feedback, this episode is your guide to protecting confidence without sugarcoating or making it worse.
In this episode:
- Why post-game critiques often do more harm than good
- The parenting trap of trying to fix instead of listen
- How Scott and Jamie have wrecked (and rebuilt) their own kids' confidence
- What “your reaction becomes their inner voice” really means
Takeaway Tool: “Stability > Stats”
Protect the mindset - stay positive, even when the game wasn’t.
