Smarter Strength w/ Dr. David Skolnik, DPT
Smarter Strength is a show for good coaches who want to be great and great coaches who want to become undeniable.
It’s a show for coaches who choose knowledge over status, value over virility and impact over influence.
While there are countless shows about the theory, science and art of coaching, this show is all about ACTION. Because just like we tell our clients, great intentions are useless without action.
Each week, we will work through the PSA Framework: Problem, Solution, Action.
We will identify a common coaching problem, propose a viable solution and present an action every listener can take right away to become a better coach. The kind of coach who solves complex problems quickly and whose clients get uncommon results.
You won’t become a better coach just by listening to Smarter Strength, but you will if you apply what you learn!

Action Plan
I want to you grab a pen and paper and make a short list of things you want, but you’ve been too afraid to ask for. That could mean things that require you to ask permission from someone else, or things you simply need to give yourself permission to pursue. Once you’ve got your list written down, choose the one that’s the scariest. The one that is going to require to most courage to ask for. And ask for that. If it’s only you that needs to give yourself permission, well - then make sure the answer is a resounding YES. The reason to start with the scariest, most courageous ask is that once you’ve checked that one off, the rest of the list won’t be nearly as scary! So follow Julie’s advice today - be courageous, do something that scares you and ask for what you want!
That’s it for this week!
