One day you’re an athlete
The next - you’re not.
And no one talks about what comes next.
The Athlete Identity Project is here to honor the full journey.
And we stand for the truth that we’ve always been more than our results.
We believe that the end of the game
isn’t the end of our story.
That strength is found in discipline and surrender.
That our skills go beyond the field .
And that we can be proud of the athlete within us &
still become something more.
Most importantly, we believe that our value has always been greater than our sport.
What You’ll Find Here
Stories That Help Us Evolve
There’s power in sharing our truth.
You’ll find real stories from athletes, coaches, and parents that explore how to stay grounded in the pursuit, rediscover purpose, and build a life beyond the scoreboard.
Workshops & Keynotes
We create space for honest conversations.
You’ll find free keynotes and interactive workshops focused on identity, self-worth, resilience, leadership, and the habits that support long-term success in sport and in life. Always real. Always rooted in lived experience.
A Space for Collaboration
We create better outcomes when we build together.
We’re currently bringing several projects to life that support holistic athlete development & identity. If our missions align, we’d love to connect.
Projects in Progress
Memoir — Built for More traces the disciplined world of high-level gymnastics and the identity unraveling that followed. It explores the quiet cost of perfectionism, the grip of anorexia, and the deeply personal process of rebuilding a self beyond sport.
I’m currently seeking a developmental editor to help me bring my story into the world.
Resource Guide for Parents & Coaches — A practical toolkit with insights, tools, and tough conversations to help those supporting athletes navigate performance, pressure, and growth. It’s everything we wish we’d had.
