Episode 311 - Nolan Graham

Episode 311 - Nolan Graham

This week Topher and Jeff welcome Nolan Graham to the podcast to share his incredibly inspiring story. Nolan grew up on Vancouver Island, played college hockey at RPI, and coached juniors before returning to his alma mater as an assistant coach. In 2018, while at RPI, Nolan suffered an unimaginable tragedy involving a car that changed his life.

Nolan has not spoken in such a public way about his journey since the accident and the effects of his traumatic brain injury, and we are honored that he said yes to us.

In this episode we talk about:

— Resiliency, gratitude, and perspective

— Getting cut by his own dad from Bantam AAA (HOT TAKE: dad said he needed to play where he could play in all situations and get as many puck touches as possible!)

— Some incredible stories that reinforce the need to be authentic and genuine when handling highs and lows in any endeavor

— The accident that changed his life

AND SO MUCH MORE!
