## Resource

From a 15-year NHL career spanning more than 800 games to his current role as an NHL media analyst, Nate Thompson has seen the game from every angle. But this conversation goes far beyond hockey. Nate opens up with honesty and vulnerability about one of the most important challenges athletes face: the transition from player to life after the game. We discuss identity, purpose, mental health, finding new passions, and what it really takes to reinvent yourself when the jersey comes off for the last time. A powerful conversation for players, parents, coaches, and anyone navigating change in their own life. Because the hardest part isn't always making it to the top—sometimes it's figuring out who you are after the dream evolves. This is LIFE. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
