Hockey Cards 101 - Maximizing Your Hobby Experience & Healthy Collecting Habits w/ Rob Girard, Sports Card Therapist

Send us Fan MailIn Part 5 of our Hockey Cards 101 series we cover a topic that's not touched upon much in the hobby...healthy collecting habits.  We believe the hockey card hobby has many positives and benefits to collectors but it can be addicting.  If your participation in the hobby gets out of control, there can be a downside too.  We were fortunate to be joined for this sensitive topic by licensed therapist and avid hobbyist Rob Girard, better know as the Sports Card Therapist.    If at any point, your experience in the hobby becomes unhealthy, reach out to someone for help.  We're here to help too for anyone that could use it.  It's our hope that bringing topics like this out in the open will help strengthen the foundation of the hocky hobby for further long-term prosperity and happiness for us all.Partners & SponsorsOur Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/HockeyCardsGongshowPWCC Marketplace - https://www.pwccmarketplace.comSlab Sharks Canadian Consignment - https://www.slabsharks.comSign up for Card Ladder - https://app.cardladder.com/signup?via=HCGongshowFollow Hockey Cards Gongshow on social mediaInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/hockey_cards_gongshow/TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@hockey_cards_gongshowFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/HockeyCardsGongshowTwitter - https://twitter.com/HCGongshowYouTube - http://youtube.com/@hockeycardsgongshow
