Maybe we aren’t all so different after all! In this episode of How To Twenty-Something Jenna Diamond provides the audience with how she transitioned from a full-time athlete to a full-time working adult. As she shares her experience, it becomes clear that we aren’t all that different after all and we all share similar struggles or ‘rites of passage’ as we move from college to the real world. She answers the thought provoking question of “who am I?” that she had to figure out after leaving the one sport that created who she was for the last 18 years.

Key Takeaways:

• Losing structure in your day leaves you with too much time to think, but filling it with thought provoking activities will help with this transition
• Eating healthier, working out, and finding out who you are outside of being an athlete will combat this identity loss
• Learning how to balance this new life where working out 5 hours a day was no longer feasible, leads to finding enjoyment in different types of movement
• What can you find in your life to substitute the time and energy that was previously directed towards your sport?
• How to use your college sport to get your first job after graduation
