Oh Hello there! I was expecting you to schedule this session. I know the season has started off rough. You’re probably losing your mind right now thinking of bagging it in for the year and projecting all your anger and disappointment towards the coaching staff the ownership, maybe even some of the players. That’s OK. As long as you’re not hurting anyone physically you can stay in these feelings as long as you’d like. I’m not here to judge you or tell you what’s right or wrong. But I am here with you, to help you get passed this. Let me ask you this. How long do you want to sit with these feelings of the frustration, anger, and disappointment? There’s no right or wrong answer. Everyone has their process and takes the time they need to heal and get themselves back up. That’s the key. Picking yourself back up. We signed up for this. We signed up for living the highs, but there can be no highs without the lows. Just remember this…The possibilities are still endless we still have a shot. The seasons not over. And we are counting on you to show up. We need you. We need your energy. We need your hope. Looks like our time is coming to an end for today. But as you go through your week, I’d like you reflect on these questions : 1. What do you need right now to help you get through this moment? 2. Oh, how long do you want to stay in this for? 3. Is there any hope even if it’s small you can find to help you move forward. You got this!

Hey fellas, In an effort to get our fans in the right state of mind for the upcoming draft I wanted to guide us into a visualization exercise. Visualizing what you want is an important way to communicate to the universe you greatest desires. And the law of attraction states that if we call on things through our words, our thoughts, and our feelings, the universe will send those things our way. Sometimes as fans we can become negative, pessimistic, and emotionally reactive when things don't go our way (ahem Dru Tranquil) or when things are looking uncertain (ahem Austin Ekeler). And because of how we act, we could be sending out negative energy into the world which comes back to us in feelings of disappointment, bitterness, and resentments towards our football team. So in the spirit of positivity let change that through this intentional exercise... Please find a quiet room, get into a comfortable position, and close your eyes.... Let's start by focusing on your breathing. You don't have to change your breathing, just notice it. Notice where you feel the air coming in and going out. Maybe its the at the tip of your nose, maybe its at the back of your throat. Just notice the breathing and the rising and falling of your chest as you breathe. Now with your eyes closed. We are going to create your happy place. This is a Sunday Night. Actually its Sunday February 11th, 2024. Super Bowl night. And the Chargers are in victory formation with 10 seconds left in the game. They are 10 seconds away from winning their first Super Bowl. Justin Herbert threw for 3 touchdowns, and Derwin James just finished picking off the ball, giving it to the offense to run out the clock. The Chargers are up by 10 points. The game is all but over. Take note of your surroundings... Where are you? Maybe you're in your living room. Maybe you're at a local charger bar. Maybe you're at the actual game! You decide where you are during one of the most amazing moments in your life.... Now I want you to notice who is there with you? Maybe it's your family, or maybe it's your friends. What are you guys doing? How are you celebrating this most amazing moment? Take moment and just imagine it. Now you look back at the TV and you see Justin taking the snap and kneeling. He hugs the ball with 2 hands. Corey Linsley turns around with the biggest smile and hugs Justin. The clock reads 9 seconds... 8 seconds...7....6....5....4....3....2....1....double zeros!!! The team races onto the field as blue a gold confetti falls and fills the stadium. Sebastian Joseph Day and Keenan Allen are holding an empty orange gatorade water cooler. In front of them, is Brandon Staley soaked in gatorade.... You hear Matt "Money" Smith screaming "And the Chargers Are Woooooorld Champions!" Now I want you to notice How you feel right now. Notice your heart, what does it feel like? Imagine your spirit, a spirit that has battled through the toughest of times, through the most uncertain years, only to get to this moment and finally get to witness your team win the Super Bowl... This is an amazing moment. It is the ultimate moment. And all the ups and downs of the offseason, all the dissapointment from previous years doesn't matter now. Because you are here now. And everything that happened, happened the way it was supposed to. Everything is right... This is your happy place. Stay here for as long as you'd like. And remember whenever you need to, you can always return to this place. Hope this was a helpful exercise! I do have a question for each of you: When you did this exercise... Where did you imagine yourself watching the game and who were you with?? Much Appreciated! -Mr. Therapist

I just had the best experience of my life... I was at a local board n brew in Orange County just minding my own business with my family and friends when I look up and notice Justin Freaking Herbert is sitting in a booth next to us with 2 of his pals. The first thing out of my mouth was "Oh shit, that's Justin Herbert" his friend looked up as I said that, he clearly heard me, and I turned away immediately and tried to act cool. Before I knew what hit me, I was sweating profusely, and my heart was racing. "What the hell is going on with me" I asked myself. I've met plenty of chargers before, and plenty of famous people before but I've never had his reaction before. My wife and friends encouraged me to go up to him and ask him for a picture or autograph but all I could think of was how screwed up it would be of me to make him uncomfortable in the middle of his dinner. So I sat and contemplated what would be the best way I could go up to this guy, without making things awkward. My first idea was to tell my 4 year old daughter- who loves Justin- to go up to him and ask if he was justing Herbert and ask for a picture with him and me... but she was way too shy to go up to him. My wife looked over at me and told me "Hey go show your daughter what you do when you are scared to do something cool. She's watching you and learning from how you handle this experience". It was at that moment that I realized I really had no choice. I couldn't bitch out in front of my daughter. So we waited for Justin to finish his meal and walked up to him to ask him for a picture together. I felt so nervous, no man has ever made me feel that way before... I apologized like 5 times for interrupting his dinner and asked for a picture. He was so nice and reassured me that it was totally okay that I walked up to him. I remember a few episodes back you guys were making fun of Kev Huggin Duggin for fanboying hard on Herbs when you guys saw the team at a hotel/restaurant... I remember laughing that day thinking of all the different ways I would've acted cool in a situation like that. And I gotta say now that the same thing happened to me. I sit here and truly empathize with you Kev! My question is... If you had a random encounter with Justin Herbert like I did, and you had 30 seconds to pitch him to come on your show for an interview (lets say he was in the middle of eating a sandwich) what would each of you say? I attached the picture we took, hope you enjoy it! Thanks guys for the show, appreciate you all! Cheers fellas!
