Abstract

This chapter is relevant for athletes, coaches, and sport psychologists. Athletes can get inspired by finding an optimal balance between sporting performance and other life domains which can lead to career excellence in sport and life beyond. Furthermore, that ongoing preparing for a second career while competing is doable and meaningful. Coaches can further develop their coaching skills by integrating a caring approach and use their influential role to support athletes aiming for career excellence. Sport psychologists can broaden their toolbox beyond the principles of psychological skills training related to performance enhancement and use a holistic-ecological approach when working with clients and/or organizations.
