I’m Harrison Bernstein host of The Everyday Coach, an exploration into helping us improve relationships by recognizing coaching opportunities in our daily lives. Whether it’s just a quick word or a longer engagement, we are coaching every day.. in every aspect of our life, whether we realize it or not. This makes us all coaches. On each episode, we talk with prominent leaders about how we can turn everyday interactions into everyday coaching moments.

I started this show because I realized I know so many fantastic coaches in professional sports, in successful businesses and in our nation’s military. I also know these incredible people have secret insights about what it takes to successfully lead as a coach. And I want to share this knowledge with the world, so everyone can become a GREAT everyday coach.

In this episode, Shawn Springs and I revisit old football memories and leadership lessons which paved the way for him become the Founder and CEO of Windpact, a successful materials data and technology company. Shawn was a top national football recruit leaving high school, which led to an illustrious college career at Ohio State. Springs would be named the Big 10 Defensive Player of the Year, earn All-American honors, and follow his father’s legacy, Ron Springs, into the NFL. Springs was chosen by the Seattle Seahawks as the third pick overall in the 1997 NFL draft. To this day, no cornerback has ever been picked higher in the draft. He played in the NFL for 13 seasons with the Seahawks, Washington Redskins and the New England Patriots before retiring and building Windpact.
