Still an Athlete
Still an Athlete
Podcast Description
For Former Athletes Building Empires (After the Game Ends)
You were told your peak was on the field, court, or track. Then reality hit: "What now?"
The transition out of sports can feel like a loss of identity, purpose, and community—leaving many of us feeling lost, depressed, or stuck in careers that don’t fit.
I’ve been there. That’s why Still an Athlete exists.
This isn’t a podcast about "letting go" of your athletic past. It’s about leveraging it to dominate your next chapter. Each week, I interview former athletes who’ve turned their discipline, grit, and competitive edge into successful businesses, creative hustles, and fulfilling lives—from ex-NBA players turned Grammy-winning producers to D1 athletes who built 7-figure brands.
We break the lies like:
"Your glory days are behind you."
"You have to start from scratch."
"Athletes don’t belong in [art, tech, finance, etc.]."
If you’re:
✔ Struggling to find purpose after sports
✔ Tired of being called "washed up"
✔ Ready to use your athlete mindset to win in business, art, or life
…you’re still an athlete. And the game’s just getting good.
