It's About Not Needing Permission To Change Your Life: Rachel Reid's "Tough Guy"

from Novel Ideas · host The Novel Ideas Podcast

With this third installment of the "Game Changer" series, the Toronto Guardians' defenseman, Ryan Price, carries the weight of conflict externally on the ice, and internally in his heart, as he questions whether hockey's truly meant for him. Pair that with a recent anxiety diagnosis, an unfurnished apartment, and 12 year-old crush that reignites after walking into a drugstore, Ryan has a lot of decisions to make. Some things change, others stay the same, and we have to ask ourselves whether the sacrifices asked of us sometimes is worth it all. Enjoy today's episode, especially if you are at your own crossroad in life. BYYEEE!!!!
