About Life Beyond Athletics

Life Beyond Athletics was created to help athletes plan, prepare, and transition into their life beyond athletics. The company was created by athletes for athletes, we realize that answering the question of what's next can be difficult. We want to help, we realize the time and dedication it takes to play a sport from a young age until now.

Our solution was to partner with leaders of different industries. We use their expertise combined with ours to help us find the best plan forward for each individual.

You're more than an athlete let us help you answer the question, what's next?
