    In this episode, Amy sits down with Michael Rodrig In this episode, Amy sits down with Michael Rodriguez, founder of the Unshaken brand, to explore how youth sports can be one of the most powerful tools for raising resilient, purpose-driven adults. Michael unpacks his philosophy that resilience is a muscle, one that gets stronger through losing, benchwarming, and getting back up, and why parents and coaches play a critical role in shaping how kids respond to adversity. Listeners will walk away with a fresh perspective on what it really means to "do your best," practical language to use with young athletes before, during, and after games, and a mindset shift that moves the focus from winning to growing. If you're a parent, coach, or anyone invested in the next generation, this episode is a masterclass in building kids who don't just compete, they persevere.

Bike rides, swimming, hiking, and pickup games all require energy, yet many people accidentally under-eat during these unstructured days. Fueling consistently keeps summer fun going strong.

    Not hungry after practice? You still need to refue Not hungry after practice? You still need to refuel. 🏃♀️⚽🏀

When a full meal sounds impossible, try drinking your recovery nutrition instead. A fluid-based recovery option can be easier to tolerate while still helping your body recover and prepare for the next session.

Aim for:
✅ Carbohydrates to replenish energy stores
✅ Protein to support muscle recovery
✅ Fluids to rehydrate

Some easy examples:
🥛 Chocolate milk
🥤 Smoothie made with Greek yogurt + fruit + milk

Recovery doesn't have to be complicated. Sometimes sipping your fuel is the best way to get what your body needs.
