Manage episode 494711829 series 3511431
What if the court was the first place a girl learns to say "no"?
In this deeply moving and inspiring episode of The Dimple Bindra Show, we sit down with legendary educator, coach, and mentor Jeff Lamb, whose 48-year career has shaped the lives of thousands of young women through the world of sports. But this isn’t just a conversation about volleyball or basketball, this is about how sports become the first safe space where girls learn confidence, boundaries, and self-leadership.
From his humble beginnings accidentally stepping into girls’ volleyball coaching to being honored as California State Athletic Director of the Year and receiving the CIF Model Coach Award, Jeff’s journey is a masterclass in mentorship. He shares powerful stories of transformation of girls who walked into the gym shy, scared, unsure of themselves and left four years later with a voice, a sense of purpose, and unshakable belief in their own power.
Whether you’re a parent of a daughter, a coach, educator, or mentor, or a woman healing her inner teenager, this episode will remind you that the field, the court, the team, it’s never just a game. It’s where resilience is built, emotional intelligence is taught, and self-worth is discovered.
We also explore:
- The impact of Title IX and why access to sports still isn’t fully equal
- How girls and boys respond differently to coaching and why that matters
- Why emotional safety and honest mentorship are key to lasting confidence
- What it means to lead from within even if you’re quiet or unsure
- How daily habits, consistency, and positive self-talk shape long-term leadership?
You’ll leave this episode with a new perspective on what sports really teach girls and why that may be the foundation for how they show up in life, relationships, and leadership.
Coach Jeff also shares timeless wisdom on parenting, emotional resilience, and the quiet moments that shape a person’s character.
His message is clear.. You don’t need to be loud to lead. You just need to start.
🌱 And always remember.. Metamorphosis, not medication. Namaste.
