    In this new episode of The Jeff Heggie Show, Jeff sits down with Kaleb Dahlgren, a survivor of the tragic 2018 Humboldt Broncos bus crash that claimed sixteen lives and left thirteen others injured. Kaleb shares his remarkable journey of resilience and hope, as detailed in his book "Crossroads."

    Kaleb shares his experiences during his time with the Broncos, a junior hockey team in Humboldt, Saskatchewan. He reflects on the life-changing accident, the unprecedented loss he faced, and how he summoned his positivity and grit to navigate life after such a terrible tragedy.

    Beyond the crash, the conversation touches on the immense support and love that poured in from across Canada and around the world. Millions of people displayed solidarity by leaving hockey sticks by their front doors, and people from over eighty countries generously contributed to support the affected families.

    They discuss Kaleb's life before Humboldt, where he bravely battled type 1 diabetes from a young age and how he used that to give back and create hope for other young kids dealing with the disease. They also talk about the important causes that Kaleb supports today.

    Kaleb Dahlgren's story is not just about surviving a devastating event; it's a testament to perseverance, hope, and embracing life with unwavering determination.
