What happens when the lights go out—and the identity you built your life around disappears?

In this episode of Tailgate Chat, we explore the challenge of losing purpose and rebuilding identity through the story of Maurice Clarett, the former Ohio State football star featured in ESPN’s 30 for 30: Youngstown Boys.

This episode connects the struggles of athletes and veterans to anyone navigating career loss, life transitions, or seasons of uncertainty. We talk about identity, tribe, pride, humility, faith, and the courage it takes to ask for help when you feel lost.

Through personal reflection and powerful lessons, this conversation reminds us that while goals change, purpose endures—and losing your way doesn’t mean your story is over.

If you’re searching for direction, meaning, or your next mission, this episode meets you right where you are.
