What do you do if you're an athlete transitioning to a new career after retirement?
An invaluable lesson I learned when looking for a new career after professional sports, was that it's ok to jump in and try something even if you're unsure how it will end up. I spent so much time worried about finding the perfect job that could afford another long term career, but ultimately it was about trying something and being ok with a process of elimination strategy. Most college athletes won't have internship opportunities like their peers and classmates to have this "testing phase" and professional athletes even less time. Focusing on the unique opportunities and skills you've developed as a competitive athlete and trying them in different arenas can be used to your benefit.

What do you do if you're an athlete transitioning to a new career after retirement?
If you know when you will transition out of sports competition, the advantage is strategically planning your finances. It's much easier researching what you want to go into next, while you still have an income, instead of being in a stressful situation of needing to take a job you may not be interested in just to make ends meet. There are many expenses that are covered for you as an athlete that can add up like meals, clothing and apparel, which typically stop once you retire or are no longer in a team environment. Getting a true financial picture of your expenses, the type of lifestyle you want to maintain, & knowing how much runway you have until it's necessary to earn a new source of income are all things beneficial to plan ahead.

What do you do if you're an athlete transitioning to a new career after retirement?
As an athlete, you've most likely had opportunities to be in different rooms, spaces, and meet people that many others typically don't have an opportunity to be around. Once these doors are open to you it's important to continue to maintain relationships, become curious about the people you've met and experiences you've had. There may be new opportunities and doors that open which may be more relevant to where you are in your stage of career than previously competing as an athlete.
