“Their Dream Ended..”: Tom Brady Goes in Depth Into Source of His Learnings in a Room Full of Entrepreneurs

Retirement comes for everyone. But for sports stars, it comes right when they seem to fall out of favor and their fitness or fall out of love with the game. Tom Brady is one superstar that does not fit the bill for the criteria. Having retired in 2019 with the Patriots, he came back in 2020 and spent another couple of seasons with the Bucs. When he eventually did hang up the boots, he transitioned away from football despite being in love with the game.

With 5 Super Bowl MVPs and 15 Pro Bowl among numerous awards, Brady registered himself as one of the GOATS. His retirement saw him exit the game on a high, even without a Super Bowl Appearance. In a recent conversation, Brady reflected on his retirement.
