In this episode of The Transition Podcast, I, Isaiah Green, a former NFL player shared about the challenges and unpreparedness that comes with the transition from a sports career to civilian life. I shared some of my personal experiences and insights on how athletes can better equip themselves for life after sports and suggests practical steps for mental and emotional preparation.

Key Points:

• The lack of discussion surrounding the transition from sports to civilian life and the need for more awareness about this topic.
• Isaiah's personal journey from growing up playing sports in Los Angeles to achieving his dream of playing in the NFL, and the abrupt ending of his professional career.
• The importance of financial literacy and planning for retirement as a professional athlete to ensure a smooth transition to life after sports.
• The necessity for mental health support and emotional preparedness for athletes, including the need for institutions and team structures to provide dedicated mental health specialists and support systems.
• A call to action for current and former athletes to share their insights on how to better equip and prepare athletes for life after sports, shaping the future of the transition process.
