Beyond the Game: The Story Behind Field Edu
Built by Athletes Who’ve Been There
Hi, I’m Chez Sievers. I founded Field Edu for the athlete standing at the edge of what’s next and the one who feels that quiet ache of uncertainty when the game ends.
I’ve lived that moment myself.
After nearly three decades in softball as a Division I athlete at the University of Texas, coach at every level, and content producer in sports media I reached the point every athlete eventually does: Who am I without the game?
That silence after the spotlight can feel deafening.
But it can also be the beginning of something extraordinary.
The Turning Point
When the structure, adrenaline, and purpose of competition faded, I chased new goals: coaching, corporate stability, more achievement.
But deep down, I was still searching for peace, meaning, and identity.
Meditation, journaling, therapy, and philosophy became my new training ground.
They taught me to regulate my nervous system, redefine success, and create a life that felt aligned not performative.
The biggest shift came when I changed my environment.
Travel reawakened the part of me that thrived on curiosity and connection: Budapest. Cape Town. Portugal. Central and South America.
Each experience helped me remember who I was beyond my résumé and stat line.
That journey inspired me to build Field Edu, a space for athletes to reset, rediscover, and rebuild their lives with intention.
