Everybody just wants to do a good job, and sometimes we have to remind ourselves that we're all trying.

Hosted by John Williams and featuring experts from Rosecrance, this discussion sheds light on the extreme stresses faced by those who run towards danger when others flee. From sleep deprivation to emotional burnout, the episode covers it all.
It doesn’t just stop at identifying the problems; you'll hear about real coping strategies like peer support and reaching out for help. A significant part of the conversation revolves around the fear many first responders have about seeking treatment and how it might impact their jobs.
