What do you do when the game ends, the structure disappears, and you don’t feel like yourself anymore?
In this solo episode, I open up about why I decided to sign up for an Ironman — not for a medal, not for motivation, but because I needed something that scared me. Something that forced me to grow. Something that helped me rebuild my identity after college soccer.
If you're an athlete struggling with purpose, feeling lost after your career, or chasing something deeper than just performance, this episode is for you.
You'll learn:
Why athletes struggle with identity after sports
How to use fear as a tool for transformation
What it mean to choose discomfort on purpose
The mindset shift that changed everything for me
This is not about being tough. It's about being honest with yourself, your habits, and what kind of life you're really chasing now.
