All athletes have to retire at some point. Yet, they rarely have a plan for what will come next. After excelling in one area of their lives, it might surprise athletes to find out what it feels like to be a rookie again. Many don't talk about the difficulties they run into and or know how to adapt to life as an everyday athlete. That's where Elite to Everyday Athlete comes in. Author Emily Coffman helps athletes make this transition and learn how to live a healthy life, enjoy working out, and find their new life outside of sports. As a former competitive athlete, Coffman uses personal experience and interviews to outline what she refers to as the "9 Steps to Getting Off the Sidelines of Life." In this book you'll explore questions such as: - Who am I when I'm not an athlete? - How do I find my next passion and purpose? - Why do I no longer have my ambition or drive?  By the end of Elite to Everyday Athlete, Coffman hopes to help former athletes find a new way to live a fulfilling, happy, and healthy life after sports
