• Episode 20: The Parent Behind the Athlete
    Dec 28 2025

    Our Season One finale is dedicated to the person who carries more of the sporting journey than anyone else: the parent.

    Across 20 episodes, we’ve explored confidence, pathways, pressure, development, identity, resilience, enjoyment, coaching dynamics, and family life. But none of it happens without you.

    In this final episode, we honour the role parents play in supporting young athletes — the unseen effort, the emotional load, the decisions, the patience, and the countless small moments that shape a child’s experience in sport.

    If you’ve ever doubted whether you’re doing enough or getting it right, this episode will ground you, lift you, and remind you exactly why your presence matters. A powerful finish to an incredible first season.

  • Episode 19: What Kind of Season Do You Want to Have?
    Dec 21 2025

    Episode 19 shifts the focus forward. Once you’ve looked back and seen how much your child has grown, the next question is simple but crucial: What kind of season do you want to build next year?

    In this episode, I walk you through the decisions families often rush, the pressure they accidentally absorb, and the practical steps that help you choose a season that actually fits your child — and your household. This isn’t about levels, badges, or impressing anyone. It’s about designing a year that supports confidence, enjoyment, and sustainability for the whole family.

    If you want a clearer, calmer, more intentional start to next season, this episode is your roadmap.

  • Episode 18: The Season in the Rearview
    Dec 14 2025

    In this episode, we finally slow down and take a proper look back at the season that was. Not the scores, not the ladder, not the chaos — the growth. We talk about how much kids change across a year, how quickly development sneaks up on us, and why parents rarely notice the progress until everything stops.

    This conversation helps you recognise what actually mattered this season, what shaped your child the most, and how to make sense of the moments you may have missed while life was moving too fast. It’s a grounding, honest reflection every family needs before stepping into a new year of sport.

  • Episode 17: Everyone’s Cooked (And Your Kids Are Too)
    Dec 7 2025

    Let’s be honest… everyone is cooked.

    Parents are exhausted. Kids are flat. The year has wrung families dry — and now we’re all meant to magically relax because it’s December.

    In this episode, Kelly talks straight about what this time of year really feels like for families in sport. The chaos. The emotional hangover. The pressure to switch off after ten months of go-go-go. The guilt around rest. And the quiet worry about whether your kids are “doing enough” over summer.

    We talk about what kids in sport actually need right now — not more drills, not more pressure, not more plans… but space, recovery, and permission to breathe.

    This isn’t an episode full of tips.

    It’s a reality check.

    If your household feels tired…

    If your kids seem different at the end of the year…

    If January feels heavier than it should…

    You’re not alone.

    This episode is for the parents trying to hold it together in the silly season — and for the kids who just need a break from being measured.

    Press play if you want honesty, not hype.

  • Episode 16: Teams & When Clubs Forget Their Purpose
    Nov 30 2025

    This time of year is heavy.

    Team lists. Trials. Selections. Emails that make your heart race. Conversations you don’t want to have with your child. And the quiet pressure parents carry trying to work out if they’re doing the right thing — or the wrong thing in the name of “the best”.

    In this raw and honest episode, Kelly speaks directly to parents living inside the chaos of youth sport. Not as a coach. Not as an expert. But as a parent deep in it too.

    We talk about the invisible burden parents carry — wondering if their child is good enough, how to know when to push and when to step back, whether to change clubs, chase better opportunities, or protect joy instead.

    We go deep into the reality no one likes to say out loud — that not all clubs support development, that politics and people-pleasing often replace purpose, and that sometimes the greatest damage in sport doesn’t come from failure… it comes from environments that silently break confidence.

    This episode is for the parents quietly second-guessing every decision.

    For the ones pretending they’re fine.

    For the ones trying not to let their fear become their child’s pressure.

    There are no formulas here.

    Just perspective.

    Honesty.

    And a reminder that your child is more important than any team list ever will be.

    If you’re in this season right now — this episode is for you.

  • Episode 15: Consistency Over Chaos — with Sarah Blom
    Nov 16 2025

    This week on The FX Factor, Kelly chats with Sarah Blom — PE teacher, qualified nutritionist, mum of two, and founder of The Consistent Approach.

    Sarah’s message is simple but powerful: healthy eating doesn’t need to be restrictive, stressful, or perfect. From bodybuilding in Miami to raising a young family, she’s learned that true health comes from small, sustainable habits — not all-or-nothing thinking.

    Together, Kelly and Sarah unpack:

    • How to find balance between nutrition, family life and work
    • Why “long, slow, steady” beats quick fixes every time
    • How to introduce healthy eating at home without pressure
    • Practical, realistic tips for staying on track through the summer chaos

    If you’re tired of diet culture or chasing perfection, this conversation is your reminder that consistency is the real superpower.

  • Episode 14: Balance Is a Myth — When Families Hit Breaking Point
    Nov 10 2025

    If you’ve ever looked at your week and thought, “How are we going to do this?” — this one’s for you.

    This episode isn’t about finding balance. It’s about being honest enough to admit that sometimes, there isn’t any. Between early mornings, work, travel, sport, school, and family life, Kelly shares what it’s really like trying to keep up with three kids — all in different sports, all competing at the same time, in different parts of Melbourne — while running two businesses and trying to stay sane.

    It’s not polished. It’s not solved. It’s real.

    The exhaustion, the guilt, the logistics, the love — and the question every parent eventually asks: how much can we keep doing before something breaks?

    Join Kelly for a conversation that every family will feel in their bones — one that’s honest, hopeful, and full of small, practical reminders that balance isn’t something you find… it’s something you protect.

    “Balance isn’t the goal — surviving the chaos with love is.”

  • Episode 13: The Prehab Generation
    Nov 3 2025

    We spend so much time trying to make our kids faster, stronger, and more competitive — but what if we’ve skipped the most important step?

    In this raw and eye-opening episode of The FX Factor, Kelly Britter unpacks the idea of “The Prehab Generation” — a movement to teach kids how to move before they train, and how to prepare before they perform.

    Drawing on decades of coaching experience and her work inside schools with FITASFX, Kelly reveals what’s really happening in youth sport today: kids training harder than ever, yet lacking the basic movement patterns that keep them healthy, confident, and strong.

    She explores how early education, proper movement literacy, and simple prehab habits can transform not only performance — but a child’s confidence, resilience, and self-belief.

    This episode isn’t about building perfect athletes.

    It’s about creating strong, aware humans who understand their bodies — and carry that strength for life.
