Paul Rosen: Triumph Over Trauma and Addiction

I've been to only government funded treatment centers too, and I'm not going to say that government funded treatment centers are not good, because I went to a couple of amazing ones, just amazing ones. But you know this is why I started puck support, Rosie.
Imagine being a promising young hockey player, only to have your dreams shattered by a freak accident. That’s exactly what happened to Paul Rosen, whose story of resilience is nothing short of inspiring. In this episode of 'Hockey 2 Hell and Back', Brady Leavold chats with his good friend Paul Rosen, a man who faced unimaginable challenges but came out stronger on the other side. Paul was just 15 when a devastating leg injury halted his budding hockey career.

They discuss the importance of trauma counseling and addiction treatment, especially for athletes who often face immense pressure.

One of the standout moments is when Paul talks about the mission of Puck Support, an organization dedicated to supporting the hockey community through mental health and addiction resources.
His story is a powerful reminder that even in our darkest moments, there’s always a way to find light. If you’re looking for a tale of true grit and determination, this episode is a must-listen. Paul Rosen’s journey is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the incredible power of hope and perseverance.
