Don’t tell children they’re the future—then price them out today. Adults create the conditions. Children own the play. Every child deserves an open door. Watch and share the full lyric video: youtu.be/zzqxfiPaPzw #YouthSports #PowerOfPlay
When every step toward a child’s dream comes with a fee, play starts to feel out of reach. Talent is everywhere. Opportunity should be, too. #YouthSports #PlayEquity
I’ve spent much of the past year thinking about what youth sports have become—and what childhood still needs them to be.
So I produced a song about it.
“Open the Door” is the ShareWaves anthem.

Every child deserves a chance to move, play, belong, and discover who they are.
“Open the Door” is the ShareWaves anthem—and a challenge to build youth sports around children, not markets.
Talent is everywhere. Opportunity should be, too.

It's not about talent, it's about habits. The majority of success comes from the small daily habits we build. Focus on doing the right small things consistently, and time will reward you. #Habits #SuccessMindset
We're not making kids better by treating them like raw material. Instead, we create the conditions for them to experience the power of play, learning to work together and overcome challenges. It's about building better humans through play. #TheBig60 #PlayEquity

Kansas City, step up and help kids thrive! Our children face more distractions than ever. Creating opportunities for them to move—physically, mentally, and emotionally—builds confidence and resilience. #TheBig60 #KansasCity #YouthSports
Our kids face more distractions than ever. Helping them thrive physically, mentally, and emotionally requires all of us. The BIG 60 challenges Kansas City to step up, get moving, and create more opportunities for kids to play. #TheBig60 #KidsPlay #MovementIsMedicine
Many city kids lack resources for sports early on. This training offers crucial resources, creating a more level playing field for them to compete and thrive. It's about building confidence, connection, and resilience through movement. #PlayEquity #YouthSports #KansasCity
Childhood has quieted. Kids move less, risk less, and play less—losing more than just games. We need to create conditions for kids to thrive by helping them move and play. It's time to step up and build opportunities for them to play. #TheBig60 #WhyKidsNeed60 #PlayEquity
College sports recruiting has changed dramatically. What was once a major NCAA violation (relationships with agents) is now common practice, even starting in 9th and 10th grade as agents see lucrative opportunities. #CollegeSports #Recruiting #NCAA
Childhood is quieter, filled with screens and less movement. When play disappears, so do confidence, friendships, health, and belonging. Play isn't a privilege; it's a developmental necessity. #PlayEquity #KidsHealth #MovementIsTheMedicine
Don't just blame the result; understand the entire process behind it. Even as adults, we're all still learning, just like these young players. Embrace the lessons, because everyone, no matter their size or success, is still growing. #GrowthMindset #Learning
Kids today have more distractions, and we adults need to create the conditions for them to thrive. The Big 60 challenges Kansas City to help kids play more. Physical activity builds confidence, connection, and resilience. #TheBig60 #PlayEquity #Kids
Leaving school for the real world means facing job insecurity. Your boss can fire you at any time, and there are always people ready to take your place. Preparation and a good attitude are key to being the best provider you can be. #RealWorld #CareerAdvice
Play isn't just for athletes; it's for developing human beings. We're building the Play Equity Platform to ensure every child in Kansas City has the opportunity to play, grow, and belong, regardless of their background. #PlayEquity #KansasCity
Team sports build more than just athletic skills. They forge lifelong friendships and a sense of togetherness that lasts far beyond the game. Some bonds start in first grade and continue through high school. #TeamSports #Friendship
Our kids face more distractions than ever. Helping them thrive physically, mentally, and emotionally requires all of us. We're challenging Kansas City to step up and create more opportunities for kids to play. #TheBig60 #WhyKidsNeed60 #PlayEquity
The game of basketball is a tool for transforming lives. It takes time to build relationships and habits, but the challenge is greater now with shorter contracts. Fans will miss watching young athletes grow from freshmen to adults. #CollegeBasketball #LifeLessons
