Effort Over Results with Quinn Magnuson is the podcast for parents, coaches, educators, and anyone committed to raising resilient, confident, mentally strong kids in a results-obsessed world.
As a former pro athlete, long-time coach, and high-performance leadership expert, Quinn dives deep into the real issues facing today’s youth—pressure, burnout, mental health, identity, social comparison, and the rising demands of competitive sports and academics.
Each week, Quinn is joined by leading child psychologists, sports psychologists, youth coaches, educators, behavioral experts, and former athletes who understand what young people actually need to thrive. Together, they explore how effort-based communication, psychological safety, and growth-mindset principles can help kids develop confidence from the inside out—not from trophies, rankings, or external validation.
Whether you’re raising a young athlete, teaching a classroom full of unique minds, or guiding teens through life’s biggest transitions, you’ll walk away with simple, practical tools you can use today. Expect real conversations, science-backed insights, and stories that remind you what matters most: helping kids feel capable, supported, and seen.
This podcast exists for one reason—to change the way we praise, teach, coach, and support the next generation.
New episodes every week.
Let’s raise stronger humans—one effort at a time.
