In this episode Caden talks about the emotional side of having a bad game and how athletes can learn to move forward without carrying that weight into the rest of their lives. Drawing from personal experience, Caden reflects on the feeling of preparing fully, showing up with intent, and still having things go wrong. He introduces the idea of “showering well” — a simple but powerful practice taught by a teammate — as a way to process emotions, release frustration, and create a clean separation between life on the field and life off it. This episode is a reminder that feeling emotions after a game is normal, but learning when and where to let them live is a crucial mental skill for long-term performance, healthy relationships, and perspective.
