With a 15-season career and 424 games in the NBL, Jason Cadee has lived the dream many athletes chase. But what happens when the final whistle blows?

In this episode, Amber Daines sits down with Jason just months into his new life off the court. From his early days as a towel boy in Bankstown to representing Australia and winning NBL’s Sixth Man of the Year, Jason shares the highs, the heartbreaks—including a life-altering car accident—and the quiet decision to retire on his own terms.

Now a Partnerships Manager at Step One, Jason opens up about starting over, navigating business without a playbook, and how he’s repurposing his elite athlete mindset in a totally new arena. They talk about identity, reinvention, daily wins, and why walking away at the right time can be the boldest move of all.

This is an honest, insightful episode for anyone standing at the edge of change—on or off the court.
