Theo Fleury's Brave Journey: From Hockey Star to Trauma Advocate

I believe it's one of the biggest epidemics on the planet... people are finding the courage and the strength to they themselves, to come out and talk about what happened.
Imagine being at the top of your game, an Olympic gold medalist and Stanley Cup champion, only to grapple with deep-seated childhood trauma. In this episode of 'Now Sober Podcasts', Vince and Jeanna have an intimate chat with Theo Fleury, who takes us beyond his hockey fame into his powerful story of survival and advocacy. Theo opens up about his experiences with childhood abuse and how it led him down a path of addiction.
But this isn't just a tale of hardship; it's a testament to resilience and the power of speaking out. Theo discusses how living a spiritual life has been pivotal in his recovery journey. He shares insights from his best-selling books, 'Playing with Fire' and 'Conversations with a Rattlesnake', which offer practical tools for those dealing with trauma. You'll also hear about Theo's work as a country music recording artist and his efforts to give back to the community.
This episode dives into the global issue of childhood trauma, its impact on survivors, and how chaos often becomes a coping mechanism. Theo's candid reflections provide hope and guidance for anyone struggling with similar issues. Whether you're dealing with addiction, past trauma, or simply seeking inspiration, Theo's story is a compelling listen. Tune in to understand the profound connection between trauma and addiction and discover the strength it takes to overcome them.
It's not just about recovery; it's about reclaiming your life and finding peace.
