For Professionals
"If you work with former athletes, you've seen the pattern: a client who looks functional but can't articulate why nothing feels right. A student-athlete whose eligibility ended and who is suddenly directionless. An athlete performing 'fine' while silently unraveling."
The challenge isn't the client — it's the absence of a shared diagnostic language for what they're experiencing. Without a common framework, the first several months of work are often spent simply trying to name the problem.
Shared Starting Point
6 Identities gives you and your client a shared starting point. Instead of spending the first 3-5 sessions uncovering the pattern, the assessment names it immediately. Your client arrives and says: 'I'm a Performer — here's what that means.'
You both have the same language from day one. The work begins faster, the resistance is lower, and the interventions can be targeted to the specific identity pattern rather than broad motivational advice.
The Framework
6 Identities is the diagnostic layer of the Executable Transition Framework (ETF™) — a structured, research-backed system for navigating the post-athletic identity crisis. The ETF assesses 8 interconnected components of an athlete's post-career life and provides targeted interventions based on the specific identity pattern.
The complete ETF framework, including clinical application guides and implementation protocols, is detailed in the forthcoming book Motion. This system is designed for professional implementation across coaching, clinical, and organizational settings.
