Ep 37 - Chris Van Zeyl

What does it really take to last 15 seasons in professional football?

In this episode of Shit My Dad Taught Me, we sit down with 2x Grey Cup Champion Chris Van Zeyl, one of the most respected offensive linemen in the CFL and a true student of the game. From switching positions early in his career…To battling dark seasons, career-threatening injuries, and identity shifts…To winning championships and redefining greatness beyond the field…

Chris opens up about:

The mindset that built a 15-year career in the Canadian Football LeagueWhy learning how to lose matters more than learning how to winThe pressure of professional sports and what happens after the final gameThe discipline, intention, and leadership required to stay at the topWhat football taught him about fatherhood and legacyThis isn’t just a football story.

It’s a story about resilience, growth, and showing up — as an athlete, a leader, a husband, and a dad.If you’re chasing longevity in your career, raising kids, or trying to build something that lasts… this one’s for you.
