The Athlete Angle - Flourish in Life After Sports

017 How to Begin Again Post Sport with Ian Miller Pt2

What is up guys! Welcome back, this is part two of my conversation with my friend Ian Miller. We covered a lot in the last episode and now we’re diving right back into it. Ian starts off with giving his thoughts on what it means to hold your sport with an open hand. We also talk about what an effective mindset looks like playing your sport now that you’re retired. He mentioned going in with curiosity and giving yourself grace when you learn you might not be able to throw as hard or kick a ball the way you once did or whatever it is you and your sport. Listen to the end, Ian gives insightful advice for anyone that is facing this transition right now.   Find Ian Miller --> LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/ian-miller-3a0241160 [https://www.linkedin.com/in/ian-miller-3a0241160?lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_profile_view_base_contact_details%3BYAmFpgm%2FTHKe9%2F5cNrSmOw%3D%3D] IG: @imillertime_96   Follow The Athlete Angle --> IG: @theathleteangle @mcbell96 Tiktok: @theathleteangle   **Don’t forget to like this show and leave a review on Apple Podcasts!

016 How to Begin Again Post Sport with Ian Miller Pt 1

Hey what’s up guys! Welcome back…I caught up with one of my friends Ian Miller. We had such a great conversation about what it looks like to be a good beginner. As former athletes, we’re faced with this season post sport where you must learn how to adapt to doing new things. We’re coming from this expectation to master our sport which is realistic. We spent the last 18ish years of our lives honing in on our craft. But that’s not the case when you retire. I believe learning how to begin a new season, hobby, career, etc well is a key part of transitioning to life after sport. Ian also walks me through what it’s like to gain perspective after being injured and how to play your sport again but this time for fun.   Find Ian Miller --> LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/ian-miller-3a0241160 [https://www.linkedin.com/in/ian-miller-3a0241160?lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_profile_view_base_contact_details%3BYAmFpgm%2FTHKe9%2F5cNrSmOw%3D%3D] IG: @imillertime_96   Follow The Athlete Angle --> IG: @theathleteangle @mcbell96 Tiktok: @theathleteangle   **Don’t forget to like this show and leave a review on Apple Podcasts!

014 Some Lessons I’m Still Learning Pt. 1

Hey Hey! Welcome back and get ready for the first episode of season 2 of The Athlete Angle! We did something a little different this time. My interns Hannah and Lauren interviewed me about my story. They asked tons of great questions ranging from managing the emotions that come with transitioning out of your sport to finding a new why in the gym to learning how to find friends outside of your sport. These are lessons that I’ve picked up along the way that have worked for me and wanted to bring into the light. If you resonate with these lessons or topics we discuss, please a review and subscribe.

013 Learn How to Play Where your Feet Are Pt.2 with Cam Dobbs

What is up guys, Happy 4th! It’s been a minute since I’ve published an episode so thanks for being patient with me! Hopefully it built the anticipation for part 2 of my conversation with Cam Dobbs. If you loved the first part of her story, you’re going to LOVEEE the 2nd part.  Quick disclaimer, if you haven’t listened to part 1 of this conversation I encourage you to go back and listen to the previous episode first. Believe me it’ll make way more sense.  If you’re like heck no MC, I only want part 2 I got you…  Cam is a retired D1 collegiate volleyball player. She came from a family of collegiate athletes and had the privilege of playing at her dream school, University of Miami.  Cam suffered multiple concussions which eventually ended her volleyball career and left her in one of the most difficult seasons she has ever faced. In the middle of this season is where she learned the power of “playing where you’re feet are.”  In this episode, we tackle what it looks like to transition out of your sport, and how you can apply the concept of playing where your feet are.   Find Cam Dobbs here -->  PWYFA Play Where Your Feet Are™ Podcast   PWYFA Play Where Your Feet Are™ Book Now Available on amazon + website; merch out on website! http://playwhereyourfeetare.com/ [http://playwhereyourfeetare.com/]    All links here: https://linktr.ee/PWYFA [https://linktr.ee/PWYFA]   Personal IG: @cam.dobbs   Follow The Athlete Angle --> IG: @theathleteangle @mcbell96 Tiktok: @theathleteangle   **Don't forget to like this show and leave a review on Apple Podcasts!
