Tom and Will address a situation in which a young man gets so anxious before basketball games that he is physically nauseous. As a result of his anxiety, he decided not to try out for the high school team this year. However, his identity is so intertwined in the game that he feels he’s lost his sense of self and that the only thing he was good at is now gone.

The guys share their own experiences with anxiety and coming to grips with “losing” a part of themselves as the seasons of life change. They offer suggestions in how this young man may overcome this fear and regain his passion for the sport.
