À propos de cet audio

A riveting look behind the mask of an NHL goalie, The Save of My Life offers understanding and hope to anyone living with mental illness

By the time he was twenty-two years old, goaltender Corey Hirsch had realized his childhood dream of playing in the NHL, won an Olympic medal and drunk from the Stanley Cup. While he excelled on the ice, out of the net Hirsch was plagued by persistent dark thoughts and ceaseless anxiety. On days when he could barely get out of bed, he was able to push aside the endless loop of dark thoughts running inside his brain long enough to win a game. But as soon as he got back home, the agonizing cycle started all over again. And it continued, until finally he was able to confide in a team trainer who helped him get the professional treatment he needed. Diagnosed with obsessive-compulsive disorder, Hirsch was able to embark on the rocky road to recovery. As one of the first professional athletes to talk openly about mental health, Hirsch wrote about his OCD for the Players’ Tribune. His piece remains one of their most-read articles ever.

As Hirsch says, “I am not insane. I am not a bad person. I am not weak. I have an illness, and there is a treatment.”

The story was well told and full of bravery.
my only critique is that the narrator had several mispronounced words which was distracting

Thank You!

A tough story that I mildly share, and it is great to hear the progress Corey made. Caveat: the Narrator really needs to work on pronunciations of so many names and places.

Brave story, Well written.

That was the only frustrating part otherwise it is a really great help to those of us who have had to deal with mental health. Thanks for this book

Poorly pronounced names all through the book

I couldn’t stop listening to this book! It’s honest, emotional, and incredibly powerful. Corey’s story stuck with me. His willingness to speak so openly about his mental health struggles is not only brave, but truly impactful. It’s the kind of book that makes you feel seen and reminds you how important it is to keep the conversation around mental health going. I think it’s fantastic that Corey continues to share his story as a keynote speaker across Canada and the U.S., speaking to both corporations and youth, and the way he connects with others is helping to shift how we understand and talk about mental well-being.

Couldn’t stop listening

the book was great, but the narrator should have brushed up on how to pronounce hockey legends names. thats the only negative and not even bad. just a little annoying for a hockey fanatic

Excellent insights.

Nearly EVERY name in this book is mispronounced. More effort needs to be put into the editing/directing. Unacceptable.

Get the names right
