Episode 25: Remember Your Why (Before You Lose Your Mind)
Description
Day 1 of CHD Mini-Camp: Resetting your parent brain for the season ahead
Welcome to the first-ever Crazy Hockey Dads Mini-Camp! Five days, five quick hits to help you kick off the season without losing your damn mind.
In this episode, Scott and Jamie break down one of the easiest things to forget (and the most important to remember): why you signed up in the first place. Because before the standings, the car rides, and the goalie drama... there was a good reason you said yes to youth hockey.
In this one:
- Finding your "North Star" as a hockey parent
- Why keeping it fun is still the best long-term strategy
- How we let our own anxiety cloud the big picture
- A reminder that pay-to-play means you opted into this chaos
- How to reset when you're spiraling over things that don’t really matter
Plus: The international listener base keeps growing, laces still haven’t been ordered, and yes, Brazil plays hockey.
Takeaway Tool: “Joy = the Multiplier”
Fun fuels confidence, effort, and long-term growth. Ask if they enjoyed it, not just how they played.
If the season’s just starting and you’re already tense... this one’s for you.
