In this episode of the Costello Coaching Podcast, Andrew Rohrbach and Tommy Costello, dive deep into what the transition out of sport actually feels like. From realizing how much of your identity was tied to being an athlete, to dealing with the frustration, anger, and self-doubt that can come when it ends — this is an honest conversation about what most athletes go through but rarely talk about.

We break down how the mental side of the game can shape your path long after you stop playing, and how the skills you built through sport — discipline, resilience, competitiveness — don’t disappear… they just need a new arena.

If you’re a current athlete, former player, or anyone going through a major life transition, this episode will challenge you to think differently about who you are and what you bring to the table.
