Imagine lacing up your skates for the very last time, knowing that the sport you love is slipping away due to the invisible injuries plaguing your brain. That's the reality Daniel Carcillo faced, but from the ashes of his NHL career, he's emerged as a beacon of hope for those grappling with mental health challenges. This episode takes you on a ride from the chilly rinks of Ontario to the hallowed grounds of the Stanley Cup, and into the boardroom where Carcillo now leads with a mission to innovate mental health treatment. We share the ice with Daniel as he recounts the thrills of playing with legends and the pivotal moments that forced him to hang up his jersey and tackle life's next chapter.

Transitioning from the rush of professional sports to the calm of parenting isn't a path tread by many, but it's one that Daniel Carcillo skates with grace. We uncover the profound impact a coach can have on the development of young minds, both on the ice and in life's daily shuffle. The episode isn't just about hockey; it's a heartfelt exploration into the strategies and emotional investments of raising a family, where every day is game day, and every moment with your children is a chance to coach for life's biggest wins.

Hear first-hand how Daniel faced the darkness of post-concussion symptoms and discovered a light in the form of psilocybin therapy—a journey that not only transformed his health but inspired a movement. We traverse the landscape of natural medicine and the promising horizon of psychedelic treatments, detailing Carcillo's role with Healing Realty Trust and the push to bring these therapies into the mainstream. It's a story of resilience, innovation, and the pursuit of healing that can change the game for concussion survivors and beyond. Join us as we celebrate the victories, both with the Stanley Cup and in the ongoing battle for a healthier mind.
