Episode 151: Building Your Team and Finding the Right Coach
This week, Corrine Malcolm and Hillary Allen dig into one of the most important — and sometimes overlooked — parts of an athlete’s support system: finding the right coach. They talk about what actually makes a good coach-athlete fit, from communication and collaboration to goal alignment, professionalism, and whether a coach is truly invested in you as a person rather than just your performance. They also explore the red flags that can emerge once a coaching relationship is underway, why athletes should pay attention to how a coach responds when things get hard, and what it looks like when a relationship simply reaches its natural end. Plus, they walk through what to do if a coach exits at a difficult moment, how to rebuild trust in a new coach, and why self-advocacy and a broader support team can make all the difference. It’s a practical conversation about building the right team around you, asking better questions early, and remembering that you’re allowed to want a coaching relationship that actually fits.
