From Stanley Cup to Sobriety: Brent Sopel's Battle with Dyslexia & Addiction (160)
Join us for an inspiring episode as I, your host Jodie Stevens, sit down with Stanley Cup Champion Brent Sopel to delve into our shared experiences with dyslexia and addiction recovery. Diagnosed with dyslexia only after his daughter's diagnosis, Brent reflects on his undiagnosed struggles during his youth, the coping mechanisms he developed, and how these challenges intertwined with his battle against addiction. We explore how dyslexia shaped his exceptional "hockey brain," offering him a distinctive edge on the ice. Brent also shares his mission through the Brent Sopel Foundation, aiming to support and empower individuals with learning disabilities. This conversation sheds light on the profound connection between learning disabilities and mental health, emphasizing resilience, self-acceptance, and the transformative power of advocacy.
