Description

What happens when everything you worked for suddenly feels like too much?


This week’s guest, Jackie Reyneke, opens up about the emotional rollercoaster of being a Division I athlete at Princeton — from high expectations and identity struggles to injury, loss, and the quiet moments when she questioned if it was all worth it.


In this powerful episode, Jackie shares:


What her parents did right while she was growing up in sports


How the death of her best friend shifted her entire path


The invisible overlap between concussions and mental health


Why returning from injury isn’t just physical


And how parents can become a steady presence instead of added pressure


Jackie now works with athletes to build confidence, set meaningful goals, and navigate the mental side of sports and life. Her story is raw, honest, and full of insight for any parent raising a kid through competitive sports today.


Whether your child is dealing with an injury, mental health challenges, or the pressure to perform, this episode is for you.
