Save The Kids Ep. 151 Help your teen fail with Ashley Kuchar

Save the Kids Season 3 Episode 36

You know what teens today are super afraid of?  Failing.  One of the biggest things holding back teens today from even trying new things is the fear of failing.  The ability to fail and not get crushed is a critical life skill, and we need to get better at it.  That’s where our guest comes in

Dr. Ashley Kuchar is a former collegiate student-athlete and the founder of Fail Better Training™. As a mental performance coach, she is passionate about helping athletes (of all levels) learn how to respond to challenging situations in ways that foster resilience rather than rely on harsh criticism. During her doctoral degree, Ashley developed a resilience program called RESET. She tested the 6-session program with over 250 NCAA student-athletes and found that it supported adaptive coping, well-being, and sport performance. Ashley played basketball and softball in high school. In college, Ashley was a starting guard for the Fort Lewis College (FLC) women's basketball team and at the conclusion of her athletic career, she was awarded the Dr. Troy Bledsoe Female Scholar-Athlete of the Year and was the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference Nominee for the NCAA Woman of the Year Award.
