from The Shane Vitko Podcast | The Hard Way Home · host The Shane Vitko Podcast

In Episode 12 of The Shane Vitko Podcast, I sit down with my good friend Jack Campbell, retired NHL goalie, for something completely different.Instead of walking through Jack’s hard way home, we recorded immediately following Jack’s first real breathwork session and unpack what actually comes up when the body finally lets go.Jack opens up about the pressure of always performing, never cracking, and carrying everything on his shoulders as a high-level athlete. He talks about feeling emotions move through his body that he didn’t even know he’d been holding onto.Shane breaks down what breathwork is doing physically, why hands lock up, why yawning happens, and how the nervous system starts resetting when it finally feels safe.Then comes the moment that hits hardest.Jack shares about losing his puppy unexpectedly, how close he came to ending his life, and how that grief surfaced during the session in a way he’d never experienced before.This episode is about release.About slowing down after a lifetime of pushing.About doing real work instead of running from what you feel.If you’ve spent your life staying strong and holding it together, this one’s for you.This is breathwork.
