Tom Brady is talking about his life.

NFL quarterback Tom Brady reflects on life stress and what he’s been “going through” in his 40s, as divorce rumors swirl around him and wife Gisele Bundchen. Brady revealed on this week’s episode of his podcast Let’s Go! that “there’s things I’m going through in my 40s and it’s life and you learn to grow up and you learn to deal with life. And that’s what we’re all trying to do. We’re trying to do it the best way we can.”

Brady also spoke about how he maintains his mental health and in the process dropped some subtle hints about he feels about his life these days.

“I think there’s an intense amount of stress that we all deal with and how do you relieve stress so that you’re not inflicting so much damage on yourself through kind of stress response,” Brady said. “So something I’ve always continued to try to work at and it’s obviously a challenge for me and different forms of, whether it’s physical therapy or you know mental therapy, all those things I’ve I’ve definitely done over the years.

“Taking care of your body, but taking care of care of your mind is really important and I think there was a part of us where we felt like, suck it up and deal with it, and I think you realize that there’s a lot, especially in today’s day and age with how fast things are happening in life for all of us, and the amount of responsibilities we have,” he continued.

“And also I think there’s part of us that are held to a certain standard that we’re almost inhuman, where, you hear this a lot, from people that say, ‘you know, I’m only human.’ We are only human. We’re not inhuman. We’re not immune to a lot of the things that just life brings us, so, we’re not robots.

“You wake up every day trying to do the best you can do and understanding that life has its stresses and to deal with them with a great support system and understanding and having some introspective in your life where you can look at yourself and say, ‘where do I need to commit my time and energy to and how can I lessen some of the stress and lessen the burden on me so that can be good for people around me?’”

Sounds like Gisele’s most recent comment may have been in response to Tom’s remarks.
