Rodgers said he spent one day in particular just thinking about what his life would be life if he decided to retire.
"A lot of fear and insecuritiy came up about what retirment looks like," Rodgers said.
He also spent a full day thinking what life would be like if he played another season in the NFL. In both scenearios, Rodgers said he saw his "full self," which he described as a "sweet experience."
