Episode 34: From Athlete to Individual: Navigating Life Beyond Sport

In this episode I share the importance of detaching from the identity of our sport. So much of our life as athletes is based around hitting our potential in sport. We live, eat, and breathe for it, but then inevitably, it ENDS. Being prepared or having the acceptance of that can be crucial in your journey.

Too often we put at the pressure on ourselves in the sport days, that we forget we aren’t solely our sport. If we don’t recognize that it can not only add to decreased performance, but can make life following sport very challenging. Being prepared and making decisions throughout that are in alignment with you and your greatest purpose can help you in navigating through all of it.
