What does it mean to be an athlete—after the game ends?
In this episode of No Former Athlete, we sit down with the one and only April “Scherm” Schermann: Division 1 softball player, award-winning educator, and legendary coach with over 21 years at the helm.
Scherm shares her story of growing up as the only girl in a neighborhood full of boys, her competitive drive to play college ball, and the emotional transition that comes after the final whistle.
💭 From athlete dreams that still haunt us at night to the grief no one talks about when you stop competing, this conversation is raw, reflective, and honestly? A love letter to the lifelong identity of an athlete.
We talk about:
-The moment she realized she’d grieved sports for over a decade
-Why “mental toughness” needs to evolve alongside mental healthHow coaching became her new way to compete
-And why there’s truly no such thing as a former athlete
💬 If you’ve ever felt like your body moved on from the sport, but your soul never did—this episode is for you.
