In this episode of The Money Mondays podcast, Dan Fleyshman sits down with Chip Paucek to discuss the challenges and opportunities faced by professional athletes after retirement. Chip shares how his organization, ProAthlete Community (PAC), described as “YPO for pro athletes” helps athletes transition from sports to successful careers and investments through mentorship, education, and connection. The conversation dives deep into the mindset shifts needed to thrive beyond the spotlight, from financial literacy to finding purpose through charity and community building.

For Miami Dolphins cornerback Ethan Bonner, every day in the NFL feels like an opportunity to prove he belongs. But Bonner’s story isn’t just about chasing playing time or battling for roster spots. Thanks to his involvement with PAC (Pro Athlete Community), he’s also preparing for the next chapter of his life — one that extends well beyond the gridiron.

“[Professional athletes] are elite people who have had very difficult circumstances. The skillset they have is so strong—and it’s not their athletic ability, that’s table stakes. It’s grit, rigor, intelligence, drive, resilience. Everything that we hire for, they immediately have.” – Chip Paucek
FOX 7 Austin’s Dennis De La Pena was joined by former Longhorns back Malcolm Brown, former Jaguars safety Peyton Thompson, and COO of the Pro Athlete Community Travis Key.
This week, PAC is hosting a conference for retired NBA, NFL and MLB players. The conference is a safe space for these individuals, and PAC is connecting the athletes with resources in finance, health, educational opportunities and business.
