    017 How to Begin Again Post Sport with Ian Miller Pt2
    Sep 9 2023

    What is up guys! Welcome back, this is part two of my conversation with my friend Ian Miller. We covered a lot in the last episode and now we’re diving right back into it. Ian starts off with giving his thoughts on what it means to hold your sport with an open hand. We also talk about what an effective mindset looks like playing your sport now that you’re retired. He mentioned going in with curiosity and giving yourself grace when you learn you might not be able to throw as hard or kick a ball the way you once did or whatever it is you and your sport. Listen to the end, Ian gives insightful advice for anyone that is facing this transition right now.

    016 How to Begin Again Post Sport with Ian Miller Pt 1
    Aug 26 2023

    Hey what’s up guys! Welcome back…I caught up with one of my friends Ian Miller. We had such a great conversation about what it looks like to be a good beginner. As former athletes, we’re faced with this season post sport where you must learn how to adapt to doing new things. We’re coming from this expectation to master our sport which is realistic. We spent the last 18ish years of our lives honing in on our craft. But that’s not the case when you retire. I believe learning how to begin a new season, hobby, career, etc well is a key part of transitioning to life after sport. Ian also walks me through what it’s like to gain perspective after being injured and how to play your sport again but this time for fun.
