Episode Synopsis

An interview with Shellie Pfohl, Esports Integrity Commission, former CEO U.S. Center for SafeSport, former ED President's Council on Fitness, Sports & NutritionIt's about developing young people, it's about developing those leadership skills and those conflict resolution and how kids can and will and are truly becoming the leaders in our communities. They have a voice, they will continue to have a voice. And if we can create those opportunities for young people to come together, give them a few resources, and use some evidence-based programming along the way, in order to do that. That's how we change culture, right?  So I truly see myself at my core, it's about youth development, and creating those opportunities for young people to thrive.Shellie PfohlCOVID-related school closures and childhood obesityLearning conflict resolution and leadership skills through sports and recessPlayworks and PeacePlayers teaching conflict resolution and leadership skillsLong-term solutions to enhance health and well-beingBuilding successful partnerships to address physical inactivityFitnessGram and win-win public-private partnershipsLink between movement and joy and learningU.S. Center for SafeSportPost-COVID youth sport activitiesYouth development through sporthttps://www.movetolivemore.com/https://www.linkedin.com/company/move-to-live-more@MovetoLiveMore
