Steve Seftel: Breaking the Ice on Mental Health in Hockey

I had a goal in mind and I didn't achieve it...it was the journey and the friendships and the places I went and the people I met, and the camaraderie in the room, all those things you know.
Ever wondered what lies beneath the surface of a professional hockey player's life? In this episode of 'Hockey 2 Hell and Back', Brady Leavold sits down with retired pro hockey player and mental health advocate Steve Seftel. Steve's journey is a gripping tale of triumph over adversity, as he candidly shares his battles with mental health and addiction.
Through his self-published memoir, 'Shattered Ice', Steve weaves together stories from his career, the people he met, and the internal struggles he faced. But it's not just about the past; Steve's mission now is to raise awareness and reduce the stigma around mental health and suicide in sports. From the anxiety of junior hockey to the pressures of the NHL, Steve's story is a powerful reminder of the importance of community and support.
Whether you're a sports fan or someone touched by mental health issues, this episode promises to be both eye-opening and inspiring.
