from The Life After Sport Podcast · host Brought to you by athlete career education and transition experts, The Final Whistle

Now that dust has settled on school, there is a strong perception amongst both parents and their aspiring athlete children that it's probably time to make a decision: going all-out at being an elite athlete, or face the real world and go study or get a job. Or is it? We ask Executive Leadership Specialist and Behavioural Change Coach, Jayne Leslie, who also happens to be the mother of a rising tennis star, Zavia Leslie-Adam, to detail her concerns about her son's sporting aspirations at this highly unsettling time.
