Valorie Kondos Field, Author, “Life Is Short, DON’T WAIT to Dance”

Valorie Kondos Field is a true legend. As a former UCLA Athletics Hall of Fame Coach of 7 NCAA Championship Teams, she’s been responsible for shaping the gymnastics program there into not just winning, but teaching life skills that athletes have taken with them off the balance beam, too.

Valorie joins us today to speak about her hard-earned career, her life, and her magnificent book, “Life Is Short, Don’t Wait to Dance.” This book isn’t about winning, rather it’s about the one’s mindset, and how what’s in your head that fuels everything else. And by the way, Valorie was dancer, and NOT a gymnast when she snagged the coaching job at UCLA. We’ll ask her about that, too, along with so many other moments that have shaped her life, including lessons learned from her mentor, legendary basketball coach John Wooden. She talks about putting those lessons to the test when faced with some rough times, including her breast cancer diagnosis.

There’s a lot to cover, and a lot to learn from this maverick. Valorie is currently a successful life coach to some high powered individuals, well ask about that, too.

Join us LIVE at 10amPST, and invite your friends, too. Make SURE to pick up her book, it’s absolutely magnificent, and I’ve footnoted some of my favorite parts to talk with Valorie about as well.

Thanks for tuning into #DeborahKobyltLIVE. I’m your host, #DeborahZaraKobylt. And thank you to my dear friend, Terry Hamermesh, for this wonderful introduction.
