Real Rich Grogan - Warrior Confidence Hockey: Unleashing Champions

By: Master Coach Rich Grogan
  • Summary

  • Welcome to the podcast where hockey players, parents, and coaches come to stand out, earn ice time, and lead with integrity. 🏒💪 What’s it all about? This podcast is your go-to resource for developing the skills, mindset, and confidence needed to succeed both on and off the ice. Combining over 40 years of martial arts discipline with 50 years of hockey experience, I teach actionable strategies that empower athletes to embrace grit, resilience, and leadership. My Mission: This journey is deeply personal. Growing up as a smaller-than-average hockey player, I was often overlooked, rode the bench, and struggled with low self-esteem, self-confidence, and belief in myself. This led to bullying and nearly quitting the sport I loved. But growing up on a farm instilled a relentless work ethic, and the discipline, respect, and mental toughness I gained from martial arts taught me how to stand out. I learned to outwork those with more talent, do the things others weren’t willing to do, and earn the ice time and leadership roles I had once been denied. Today, my mission is to be the mentor I always needed—the one who inspires players to believe in themselves, stand out from the crowd, and embrace their full potential. Through hard-hitting Right Hooks of Reality and actionable Warrior Confidence Tips, I guide players, parents, and coaches to lead with integrity, develop grit, and build a lasting legacy. What You’ll Get: 💥 Proven Strategies to Earn Ice Time: Respect, work ethic, and communication are the keys to standing out. 💥 Tough-Love Mentorship: Lessons from my personal journey, designed to build grit, integrity, and resilience. 💥 Building Winning Cultures: Tips for fostering environments where players thrive, teams grow, and championships are built. 💥 Legacy Leadership: Inspire yourself and others to lead with honor and make an impact beyond the rink. Whether you’re a player striving to get noticed, a coach building future leaders, or a parent supporting your athlete’s growth, this podcast equips you with the tools and inspiration to rise above the competition and lead with Warrior Confidence. ➡️ Be part of the Warrior Confidence movement: Like, subscribe, and share the show.
