Summary
In this episode of OG Therapy, we explore how to combat negative emotions—hate, anger, pride, anxiety—by shifting focus toward family, friends, and community. David reflects on how choosing where we put our energy gives us back something far greater: fortitude, resilience, and self-confidence.
Through personal stories about helping his wife with a headache and having a tough but healing conversation with his mechanic, David shows that service, kindness, and connection aren’t just feel-good actions—they’re powerful tools to regain control in an uncontrollable world.
This episode is a reminder that the real endgame isn’t just winning for ourselves. We win when our loved ones win too.
