When the stadium lights fade… when the crowds disappear… when the sport that once defined you is gone — who are you?

Today’s guest, Zach Lutz, knows that story from the inside.

A former MLB player with the New York Mets and Miami Marlins, Zach lived the dream — until the game ended. The transition was painful. He battled identity loss, alcohol, and hitting rock bottom.

But that wasn’t the end — it was the beginning of a completely different life.

This is a conversation about:

• Life after sports and rebuilding identity
• Finding purpose when the jersey comes off
• Recovery, resilience, and leadership
• How to develop confident, grounded, joyful athletes
• What parents and coaches get wrong — and how to fix it
• Bringing love, joy, and culture back into youth sports

If you’re an athlete, former athlete, parent, or coach — this episode matters.
