This Might Be Therapy is a raw, unfiltered journal of what it means to heal out loud. Hosted by a father, veteran, and builder rising from the ashes of trauma, addiction, emotional exile, and spiritual exhaustion—this podcast isn’t about perfection. It’s about presence. Each episode is a mirror. A prayer. A confession. A firewalk through the kind of pain most men are too afraid to speak on. We talk faith. Fatherhood. Divorce. Numbness. Redemption. And what it means to be a man rebuilding without shame. This isn’t therapy. But it might be exactly what you needed to hear.

    To Every Dad Who Thinks He Failed

    Somewhere between Episode 1 and Episode 50… I realized something. I thought I was recording a podcast about my life. I wasn’t. I was recording a podcast about yours. This episode is for every father who’s ever wondered if he’s doing enough. The dad who leaves for work before the kids wake up. The dad who comes home exhausted. The dad who quietly carries the weight of providing while hoping his children still know how deeply they’re loved. This isn’t an episode about being a perfect father. It’s about being present. Because our children won’t remember every bill we paid or every hour we worked. They’ll remember the moments we chose them. With the Fourth of July here, I hope this conversation reminds you to put your phone down, stay outside a little longer, watch the fireworks through your child’s eyes, and make memories that will last long after the sparklers burn out. If this episode causes just one dad to hug his kids a little tighter tonight… …then these first 50 episodes were worth it. Go hug your kids. ❤️

    Life Doesn’t Wait

    I thought this episode was about missing my son’s first day at International Music Camp. It wasn’t. It became a conversation about fatherhood, time, marriage, work, health, and what happens when you’re so focused on surviving today that tomorrow arrives without warning. As Father’s Day and my 15th wedding anniversary approach, I’m forced to confront a difficult realization: life keeps moving whether we’re paying attention or not. Maybe the moments we miss aren’t always because we don’t care. Maybe we’re just busy surviving.

    A Broadway Show

    A Broadway show. A trip to Washington, D.C. A pair of $130 Nikes. A little dot moving across a map 1,402 miles from home. This episode isn’t really about New York. It’s about fatherhood. Chris shares the story of watching his son Briley experience the trip of a lifetime and reflects on the sacrifices, prayers, and faith that made it possible. From a difficult birth that left Briley unable to cry, to becoming the outspoken, confident, larger-than-life personality he is today, this episode explores what it means to raise a child through uncertainty and trust God with the outcome. For fathers, mothers, grandparents, and alienated parents who wonder if their sacrifices matter, this conversation is a reminder that the seeds we plant today often bloom years later in ways we never expect. Sometimes success isn’t a promotion, a paycheck, or a title. Sometimes success is watching your child stand somewhere they never would have stood without your love, your sacrifice, and God’s grace. Topics include: • Faith and fatherhood • Raising strong-willed children • The power of sacrifice • Parenting through uncertainty • Letting go and trusting your kids • God’s provision in difficult seasons • Why the greatest achievements in life are often our children This Might Be Therapy is a podcast about real life, real struggles, real victories, and finding meaning in the middle of the mess. #ThisMightBeTherapy #Fatherhood #Parenting #Faith #God #Family #MentalHealth #PersonalGrowth #NewYorkCity #Broadway #WashingtonDC #ParentingJourney #Gratitude #Podcast

    This Might Be Therapy: Chapter 4 Episode 7 “Cold One Chris vs The Machine”

    In this raw and unfiltered episode of This Might Be Therapy, Chris pulls back the curtain on the pressure of trying to survive modern life while carrying the weight of leadership, fatherhood, mental exhaustion, and personal rebuilding at the same time. From managing the chaos of Fresh operations at Sam’s Club to navigating ADHD overload, burnout, strained workplace dynamics, and the emotional isolation many men silently live with, this episode becomes a reflection on what happens when the world expects constant performance from people who are already running on empty. Chris speaks openly about: * The reality of leadership pressure * Feeling judged while still learning and growing * Mental health in blue-collar and retail management culture * Fatherhood under stress * Veterans adapting to civilian “battlefields” * Why the garage became a sanctuary * The emotional cost of always being “the strong one” * Reclaiming identity beyond mistakes and labels This episode is for the exhausted providers, overwhelmed managers, struggling fathers, veterans, and anyone silently trying to hold life together while the world keeps demanding more. Sometimes the strongest thing a person can do… is tell the truth out loud.

    This Might Be Therapy — Episode: “The Things I Never Planned to Lose

    After months off the mic, Chris Tigges returns with one of his most vulnerable episodes yet. In “The Things I Never Planned to Lose,” he opens up about the hardest chapter of his life so far — losing his home, fighting to keep his business alive, and trying to hold it all together while rediscovering what love and faith really mean. This isn’t a highlight reel. It’s a testimony. A story about marriage on life support that somehow found a heartbeat again. About walking through eviction with dignity. About learning that faith isn’t about never falling — it’s about trusting God enough to stand back up. If you’ve ever carried the weight of being a father, a husband, or a man who refuses to quit — this one’s for you.

    The Things I Do No One Else Sees – Part Two

    In this follow-up to one of the most personal episodes I’ve ever recorded, I open up about the battles I’m fighting right now — the ones nobody sees. From navigating the VA claims process to living with the physical toll of past exposures, from silent family tensions to the invisible work of holding a household together… this is the side of strength that doesn’t look like power. It’s the quiet, unacknowledged labor of showing up every single day, even when no one says thank you, even when you’re exhausted, even when it would be easier to walk away. If you’ve ever felt unseen in the middle of your own fight, this one is for you.

    This Might Be Therapy: While You Were Waiting: Fatherhood, the Fight, and the Long Road Back

    After a long pause, I’m back—and not with a “everything’s perfect now” story. This is the truth about where I’ve been, what I’ve been fighting for, and why reconciliation with my wife and kids means more than just a fresh start. In this episode, I talk about the work behind the curtain—the concessions, sacrifices, and mindset shifts that have kept my family together—and I connect it to a bigger story fathers everywhere know too well: the fight against a system that measures our worth in dollars instead of days, and treats time with our kids like a privilege instead of a right. From therapy breakthroughs to cabin memories, from alienation pain to standing your ground as a dad—this is a raw, unfiltered update that reminds you the fight is never just about surviving… it’s about building something worth staying for. Because this is still therapy. And I’m still here. And I’m not done.

    The Man Who Carried My Name

    Before I was Tigges, I was Delclef. In this special episode, I trace the legacy of Francis Delclef—my Belgian-born great-grandfather who crossed an ocean, fought for a country that wasn’t yet his, and planted the roots of a name that still echoes through me today. This isn’t just a history lesson. It’s a declaration of origin. A reclaiming of bloodline. A spoken memorial for the immigrant soldier whose story has been buried too long in silence. If you’ve ever wondered where you come from… If you’ve ever carried pain that didn’t start with you… This one’s for you. 🎖️ Legacy. Bloodline. Identity. 🎧 Listen now.
