This is our second episode using NotebookLM to help us explore a topic. Researchers like Rob Gray at Arizona State University and many others are exploring how we learn to move. Their science can be a little intimidating and we have used Google's NotebookLM tool to digest some of Rob's podcasts and generate this short discussion of the topics of Ecological Dynamics and the Constraints-led Approach (CLA) to learning. Hopefully this introduction is helpful in starting your own journey to understand this approach and use it in your coaching.

We've been away for a while and we are still thinking about what's next. In the meantime, we're still playing with tech ideas to help with learning and communication.

That leads us to this podcast that we'll call the first episode of season 2. We're using NotebookLM, a personal language model from Google (beta) to listen to our Season 1, Episode 22 discussion on punishment and coaching.

We were joined by Heidi Anderson, John Kessel, Loren Anderson and David Cordes to explore this topic.

I had NotebookLM "listen" to the podcast and use its podcast capability to prepare a review of the discussion and gather takeaways. The two AI hosts discuss what they heard and present it here.

A little scary and a little amazing at the same time. I hope you find it interesting.

Michael Gomez joins us for volleyball, sports and life from another perspective. After a 20 year jaunt in the corporate world at Bose and Sony Electronics, Michael shifted his focus. He discovered photography at Sony and spent his free time shooting anyone willing to be photographed. That led him to explore everything from weddings to portraits to family photos. But there’s another dynamic, his volleyball life from high school to college and the pros. BJ met Michael where his volleyball and photography passions meet…on the sand and on the court. We’ll talk about that and Michael’s upcoming work at the Paris Olympics. It’s a fascinating look at passion and work life.
