Invisible Scars

The Road from Tragedy to Resilience with Kaleb Dahlgren


Listen Later

This week, Jessalynn is joined by the inspiring and resilient Kaleb Dahlgren, a philanthropist, author, former elite hockey player, and survivor. From a young age, Kaleb always knew he wanted to be a hockey player, but at the age of 4, he was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, which put his hockey career at risk. Despite the challenges he faced, he advanced to the elite level, where he became the assistant captain of the Humboldt Broncos Hockey Team at the age of 20 in Saskatchewan, Canada. On April 6, 2018, Kaleb was one of thirteen survivors of the tragic Humboldt Broncos Bus crash that shook the nation and took the lives of sixteen of his teammates, friends, and coaches. Today, Kaleb joins Jessalynn to share his story of resilience, a story that began long before 2018 and offers insight into his healing journey and his positive outlook on life when things don't go to plan. Kaleb is dedicated to helping others through sharing his story, his volunteer work, and his mentorship program, Dahlgren's Diabeauties, a mentorship program designed in 2017 to give back to children with Type 1 diabetes. He is also the bestselling author of his memoir, Crossroads, the story of his life thus far. Kaleb's story is truly inspirational, and we can't wait for you to hear this episode.   Be sure to visit Kaleb on Instagram @kalebdahlgren, his website, and in his memoir, Crossroads by Kaleb Dahlgren. Don't forget to follow Jessalynn on Instagram @invisiblescarspodcast, visit her website, and check out her shop at Doted Boutique  If you or someone you know is suffering from the effects of trauma, please know you are not alone in your healing journey.
