You're a sports kid all through high school...maybe even college and beyond. You continue to reach the top of the mountain. What happens when there are no more mountains for you to reach the top of? You change careers and start reaching again. But the transition isn't always easy. How do we as parents help our kids prepare for not just their goals in sports, but plan for a future beyond that?

Melinda Harrison has lived that life and shares her story with us this morning; talking about her new book "Personal Next."
