Aaron Volpatti is an Author, Cognitive Performance and Injury Coach, Speaker, retired NHL player, and burn survivor. He is a pioneer in Cinematic Visualization and performance mindset.
After a horrific campfire accident in 2005, Aaron was airlifted to Vancouver General Hospital. He suffered second and third-degree burns to 40% of his body and was told his hockey career was over. He faced insurmountable odds.
After several surgeries and a gruesome recovery, he returned to the ice four months after his injury and signed with the Vancouver Canucks five years later. In his 5th season with the Washington Capitals, Aaron was hit from behind and underwent a spinal fusion surgery that forced him to retire.
His successes wouldn’t have been possible without the powerful visualization practice he developed. He wrote his own story and visualized it every day. This practice has taken him to the highest level in professional sports—and saved his life.
Listen in for some great takeaways about facing adversity and how important your mindset is to your success.
