On the latest episode of the Empowered Homes Podcast, Bobby, Joe, and Meg discuss the challenges of Parenting Athletes. Raising an athlete requires intentionality and a great deal of patience! As parents, our role is not to act as the coach (unless we're actually coaching our child's team), but to support and guide them toward fulfilling their higher, God-given purpose.

Regardless of our own athletic background, we, as parents, need to be mindful of any unhealthy emotional attachments to our child's performance, which can make it harder to focus on the bigger picture. It’s easy to lose sight of the Gospel and forget that life lessons should take precedence over wins, points, or breaking records. It's important to embrace the opportunity to nurture growth through these experiences.

Meg and Bobby are joined by Tammy Dorsett, co-founder of The Gap at Sawmill Meadow. Tammy discusses how her family supported her son's transition away from college and his path to relaunching into the world with purpose and responsibility. This experience inspired the creation of The Gap at Sawmill Meadow, a faith-based program designed to help emerging adults who aren't yet ready for college or the workforce make the most of a purposeful "Gap Year" to prepare for the future. They are doing the beautiful work in helping new adult practice how to be before they decide what to do.

About Tammy
Tammy Dorsett co-founded The Gap at Sawmill Meadow with her husband of 29 years, Matt Dorsett. Through Matt and Tammy’s personal story with their oldest child, they realized that the “normalized” path after high school is often not the best path for all new adults. After a long career as a physical therapist in many different settings, she felt called to move into the nonprofit space to start a faith-based, structured, Gap Year option that is financially accessible to all new adults who are bold enough to consider a different path.

Tammy and Matt have three children who are new adults. Tammy has served at her church in various capacities over the past 27 years, most recently co-leading a community group of newly married adults. Tammy loves all things cooking and loves exercising outdoors – especially at the beach or in the mountains.
