"Being myself every day and being super consistent. And again, I think it's a good thing to blend what's been done here before and to let the assistants have big responsibilities and big roles and maybe a bigger voice than they've had before, and I've always been a firm believer that they need to have a huge part in all of this. And, I have seen them step up the last couple weeks too, and that's part of my coaching style."
