This episode breaks down the college recruiting journey step-by-step — from building freshman-year habits and middle-school prep, to sophomore visibility, junior-year pressure, and senior-year decisions.Momagers will get practical tips on academics, camps vs. development, communication with coaches, social media management, organization, and how to support their athlete without losing their peace.

In this powerful episode of the Mama Just Podcast, hosts Mama Lagway and Lady G get real about what it truly takes to support your child's athletic dreams. Talent alone won't get them to the next level — it's the desire to grind, the extra speed training, footwork drills, late-night backyard sessions, and family sacrifices that make the difference. We share personal stories: one kid pancaked on the field who committed to extra work and landed at UF football, another's consistent routine leading to real opportunities, and the tough balance of academics (85+ GPA or no sports!), finances, and time. We dive into: - Spotting real commitment vs. just "wanting it" - When to start investing in serious training (around 6th grade vibes) - Viewing the costs as investments, not hobbies - Keeping it holistic: encouraging side skills like videography - Realistic expectations — not every dream leads to pro, but the lessons last forever If you're a parent pouring love, sweat, and resources into your child's spark, this one's for you. Talent is the spark — investment turns it into fire. "You give 100%, I'll give 150." Subscribe for more raw mom talks on parenting, dreams, and life beyond the field.
