Megan wants every coach and youth development practitioner (fine, every human) to learn about the brain so that they understand the unique ability that sport has to help kids heal, grow and thrive. Happiest when she’s in a room full of coaches, Megan designs and delivers training experiences, creates toolkits and resources, and provides support to organizations committed to ensuring that all sports experiences are healing experiences. She is part of the faculty for NM Sport, speaks regularly on the power of sport for good, and is the author of two books: “A Kids Book About Trauma” and “Redesigning Youth Sports- Change the Game.”
