In this episode of Training Partners, hosts Sean Rigsby and Chris Yandle pull back the curtain on one of the least discussed—but most important—topics in the coaching world: the real economics of coaching . From hourly wages to expected weekly hours, from the hidden toll of unpaid labor to the structural challenges that shape the industry, Sean and Chris break down what coaches actually face behind the scenes.
Whether you’re a coach navigating your own career, an athlete curious about the realities of the profession, or someone interested in the business of sport, this conversation offers a candid look at how the industry works (and sometimes doesn’t). Expect honest insights, personal experiences, and a few hard truths as the hosts tackle questions of sustainability, compensation, and the future of coaching as a profession.
