Podcasts about girl boss sports

On this week’s podcast we have special guest Sarah Wolfer, CEO of Girl Boss Sports, and plays womens professional football. We discuss how sports can teach us about leadership and teamwork, and the importance of encouraging and coaching young women to be leaders. I share a glass of Purple Haze Raspberry Lager from Abita Brewing Company in Covington, LA. Sarah started Girl Boss Sports because she is passionate about women supporting women, leadership, and the many benefits of sports – and at Girl Boss Sports she was able to combine all three! She has been a soccer coach for 16 years now and has consistently found a lack of female coaches no matter the geographic region where she has coached. Research shows that this is not just an issue in the sport of soccer, but across most others as well! This is an area Girl Boss Sports makes a difference in through recruiting passionate female coaches and athletes and providing training and ongoing development for all Girl Boss Sports coaching staff.Sarah has also found that every time she coach a girl’s team, she is able to connect on a deeper level with the athletes as she understands the unique experience it is to be a female athlete growing into a young woman. It is this knowledge and experience that she is excited to share with other female coaches and athletes through the reach of Girl Boss Sports. Sarah is also a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) which has given her knowledge around learning theories, child development, and mental health that have increased her skills in the coaching realm as well.As a current professional athlete herself (and former semi-professional soccer player), Sarah is able to relate to the athletes she works with on a different level.All of this combined with her 26 years of experience playing the beautiful sport of soccer have led her to where she is today – making an impact on the world by changing the life of one girl at a time.Connect with Sarah at:Instagram @ceo_sarahwolferLinkedIn @sarahwolferAbout Girl Boss Sports:They have 2 guiding values at Girl Boss Sports that determine everything they do: 1 – Keeping girls in sports by providing them with a quality sports experience and female role-models who know how to succeed as female athletes and in life.- By the age of 14, girls are twice as likely to drop out of sports- By the age of 17, half of all girls who play sports have dropped out- Yet, 96% of female C-Suite Executives report playing sports as a teenager, and over half played at the University level – proving the many benefits of sports for success later in life2 – Improving the pipeline of female sports coaches as there are way too few of them. This is something they are working to disrupt in the sports industry because:- Here in the US only 28% of youth sports coaches are women- For soccer, the number is only 21%- The higher up in administrations you go, the fewer women there are in senior level positions – for example only 20 percent of NCAA Athletic Directors are female.Connect with Girl Boss Sports at:Website: https://girlbosssports.com/Instagram @girlbosssportsFacebook @girlbosssportsTwitter @GirlBossSports1

Girl Boss Sports - An Interview with Sarah Wolfer GirlBossSports.com Sarah Wolfer is the CEO and Founder of Girl Boss Sports - a Greater Seattle area soccer company that is devoted to female athletes and coaches. Sarah is also a Professional Tackle Football Player with the Seattle Majestics (#29) and is working on a book centered on women in leadership and sports in 2019. As a female soccer player a turning happened when a male soccer coach got in her face and was very aggressive. She started crying and was kicked out of practice. She quit playing for a while and is not determined to encourage more women to become soccer coaches. And, she wants even more girls to play the game. She uses the sport to teach beyond the techniques. She teaches leadership and other life skills from the field. A key to success, she says, is to have a great support system. Her husband and teammates are part of her strong support team. She also has an accountability call every Tuesday night. It’s also very important to engage in good self care. Get good sleep, find ways to feel inspired, listen to great music. It’s okay to be scared! She was terrified before her first football practice. She did it anyway! One strategy she strongly recommends is the Power Pose that she calls the Fearless Girl Stance. Spend 2 minutes in the pose while saying positive affirmations and you’re ready! GirlBossSports.com

Sarah Wolfer is ready to change a culture where women leaders are so needed - youth athletics. Sarah created Girl Boss Sports when she saw the correlation between female leadership and involvement in sports. We are huge believers in the mission of Girl Boss Sports and can’t wait to see programs and clinics like Sarah’s becoming standard practice in female youth sports.

Having girls involved in sports will improve their lives, their families lives, the community and education. The benefits of sports outweighs what is done in any one team. Lessons learned along the way are so valuable. Founder and CEO of Girl Boss Sports, Sarah Wolfer, joins us on the podcast to discuss the value of sports for girls.
