You know you're going to have uncomfortable things come your way and if you're prepared to deal with those things, you'll come out stronger on the other side.
Imagine achieving the pinnacle of your career only to find yourself spiraling into addiction, homelessness, and even prison. That's the journey Andrew Ladd, a two-time Stanley Cup champion with over 1000 NHL games, shares on this episode of 'Hockey 2 Hell and Back'. Hosted by Brady Leavold, who himself has faced similar struggles, this conversation is as raw and real as it gets.
Andrew opens up about his early years in hockey, the pressures that led him down a dark path, and the incredible strength it took to climb back up. But it's not just about his personal battles; Andrew also discusses the broader issue of mental health in sports and how community support can make all the difference. Through Puck Support, an organization he co-founded, Andrew is now on a mission to help others facing similar challenges.
Whether you're a hockey fan, someone dealing with addiction, or just in need of some inspiration, this episode offers a powerful message of hope and resilience.
