One of the hardest parts of being an instructor isn’t the teaching — 𝐢𝐭’𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧.
This isn’t just showing up and running drills for us.
You’re not just another dog in a class. We’re investing in every single team. We’re thinking about your struggles outside of class, replaying your runs in our head, trying to figure out how to help things click. We celebrate your wins like they’re our own… and we feel the frustration right alongside you when things aren’t going well.
When we’re pouring into teams who don’t listen, don’t follow through, or don’t meet us halfway, it starts to wear on us. Not because we don’t care… but because we care that much.
And not every team will make you part of their plans — but still expect you to be part of the solution.
That’s where the emotional drain comes from.
Being a good coach means being invested.
But being a sustainable coach means having boundaries.
Not every team will take the advice.
Not every team will be ready.
And not every outcome is ours to carry.
At the end of the day, we’re here because we want to help you succeed — but that only works when you’re willing to meet us in the process.
Because the teams that show up, listen, and put in the work?
They don’t drain us… 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲’𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐰𝐞 𝐤𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐝𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬. Remember coaches are human too- with feelings, limits, and hearts invested in your success
