  • Injuries, Identity, and the Invisible Load: Loving an NHL Hockey Player
    May 9 2025
    Kati Morton, LMFT sits down with Jordan Leigh—mental health advocate, entrepreneur, and fiancée of Montreal Canadiens NHL star Patrik Laine—for a candid look behind the scenes of professional sports and personal struggle.
