Thank you for listening. Please be sure to subscribe to our Newsletter which summarizes each episode and provides tangible takeaways. https://contactspodcast.beehiiv.com/ Welcome to this edition of the Contacts Coaching Podcast, dedicated to sharing insights and advice from experienced coaches. In this episode, we will dive into conversation with Dawn Mailloux-Smith, Assistant Athletic Director at the Mansfield Independent School District This episode is brought to you by ⁠⁠⁠⁠LMNT⁠⁠⁠⁠! Spelled LMNT. What is LMNT? It's a ⁠⁠⁠⁠delicious, sugar-free electrolyte drink-mix⁠⁠⁠⁠. I tried this recently after hearing about it on another podcast, and since then, I've stocked up on boxes and boxes of this and usually use it 1–2 times per day. ⁠⁠⁠⁠LMNT⁠⁠⁠⁠ is a great alternative to other commercial recovery and performance drinks. As a coach or an athlete, you will not find a better product that focuses on the essential electrolyte your body needs during competition. LMNT has become a staple in my own training and something we are excited to offer to our coaches and student-athletes as well. LMNT is used by Military Special Forces teams, Team USA weightlifting, At least 5 NFL teams, and more than half the NBA. You can try it risk-free. If you don't like it, LMNT will give you your money back no questions asked. They have extremely low return rates. ⁠⁠⁠⁠LMNT⁠⁠⁠⁠ came up with a very special offer for you as a listener to this podcast. For a limited time, you can claim ⁠⁠⁠⁠a free LMNT Sample Pack⁠⁠⁠⁠—you only cover the cost of shipping. For US customers, this means you can receive an 8-count sample pack for only $5. Simply go to⁠⁠⁠⁠ DrinkLMNT.com/contacts ⁠⁠⁠⁠to claim your free 8-count sample pack. Taking a bunch of pills and capsules is hard on the stomach and hard to keep up with. To help each of us be at our best, we at ⁠⁠⁠⁠Athletic Greens⁠⁠⁠⁠ developed a better approach to providing your body with everything it needs for optimal performance. 75 vitamins, minerals, whole-food sourced superfoods, probiotics, and adaptogens in one convenient daily serving to bring you the nutrition you need.

I was in a conversation the other day about the future and how do you make objective and beneficial decisions when there is so much unknown in your current state of reality? Inevitably as humans I think we all long to have insight into our futures and/or why we do the things we do and how we can somewhat rearrange things into the spot of perfectly working out. But if you think about it, there's no way that could happen for just you or just me because so many lives are impacted at the same time that whats perfect to us isnt perfect to another and we all react and respond as a result of what we ourselves have also been raised in, surrounded by and exposed to. Today on the show we have a really neat opportunity to hear a story of twists and turns but ultimately God's sovereign hand at work as he wired Brandon's life together using the goods, the bads, and even the unexpected moments together for where Brandon is TODAY! Brandon Bantz is a former Major League catcher and current owner Catchers Central which focuses on creating impactful relationships in the sport of baseball and softball through high level skill development training. Since finishing his almost 10-year professional career spanning across 3 organizations (Seattle Mariners, Washington Nationals, and Miami Marlins), he has trained numerous Major and Minor League Baseball players, US Olympic and Professional Softball players, and has helped hundreds of baseball and softball players achieve collegiate scholarships. He currently travels the country developing players, coaches, teams, leagues of all ages and skill levels. A native of Mansfield, TX, Brandon received a collegiate scholarship to play at Dallas Baptist University in Dallas, TX. In 2014, He was inducted into the hall of fame at DBU as well as for the city of Mansfield ISD athletics programs. He is currently residing in Denver, CO with his beautiful wife Kelly and their two rescue greyhounds, Sunny and Grover. Hopefully there are some incredible insights for you on YOUR journey during today's conversation with Brandon, and how to navigate all those twists and turns life throws at us too. Just a heads up; this could be a two part conversation but for sake of understanding how all of Brandon's Journey has led him to the things he's doing today and the wisdom he imparts to us all, using his experience we are still featuring it all in one convo! SO. . . Dive in with us today as we explore what it's like to transition well on the Places Between.

In a landmark U.S. Supreme Court ruling, the justices ruled 6 to 3 that employers cannot discriminate against LGBTQ employees because of sex.  And one of the court’s most conservative justices wrote the ruling.  In fact, Justice Neil Gorsuch said, “the answer is clear.”  The ruling is important to a great many Texans, who have long been denied this protection.  In this edition of “Y’all-itics,” the two Jasons sit down with Stacy Bailey, a Mansfield ISD teacher who was suspended after showing a picture of her partner, the woman who would become her wife, to students in her elementary classroom.   And they’re also joined by Katie Hays, the lead evangelist at Galileo Church in Fort Worth – a church with a large LGBTQ community https://www.galileochurch.org/Katie Hays on WFAA

Our future workforce requires the skills STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) education provides. Women and minorities have historically been underrepresented in these fields. Although schools are working to incorporate STEM curriculum, what can we as parents do to foster an appreciation for STEM in our children's everyday lives and expose them to possible careers? In this episode I sat down with Dr. Mary Payton, who is a retired Army Chemical Officer, STEM Educator, author, and host of the radio show "All About STEM" I was also joined by STEM teacher from Mansfield ISD, Gregory Conely.  For more information head to our website schooldazedshow.com

The superintendent is the CEO of a school district and is responsible for using financial and human resources to meet the needs of students, teachers, and faculty. A school district's board of directors hires the superintendent and he or she is responsible for implementing the goals they set to ensure success for their students. In this episode we welcomed Mansfield ISD superintendent, Jim Vaszauskas and Mansfield ISD school board President, Karen Marcucci who gave us an insider's look at how a school district is run and how decisions are made that impact the leaders of tomorrow.

In our latest episode, Colton is live with Coach Philip O'Neal, Athletic Director at Mansfield ISD. Coach shares what his vision was stepping into the Athletic Director position and what steps they take as a program to focus on character building and going beyond the game. Coach also shares the different metrics they track as a district and how that has been an important way of having perspective and understand how the district and individual schools are doing as a whole. Key takeaways from this podcast: Build your athletes self-esteem by noticing what they do for others. Things that are measured are improved, things that are measured in public are improved faster. Metrics can be an accountability system for those that lag behind in your program.

Children live for today. Sometimes it can be challenging to encourage our children to think beyond the moment and set their sights on the bigger picture.

This week we welcomed Katrina Mabry-Smith, AVID District Coordinator for Mansfield ISD.  Katrina shared tips for parents to help children set and reach goals and develop a Growth Mindset.
