In this episode we catch up with past guest Ashley Iverson and her significant other Phil about their journey as a couple, Ashley's work with Iverson Foundation for Active Awareness, Phil's experience as a firefighter, his battle and ultimate path to recovery from alcoholism, and the importance of mental and emotional health for first responders and their families.



Ashley Iverson is the most incredible human. After losing her husband Corey Iverson to the Thomas Fire in 2017, she began working to change the narrative behind mental health and resilience in first responders and the community. Ashley is a mother, mental health advocate, and jazzercise enthusiast.




Phil is a father, Cal Fire Fire Captain, member of the Cal Fire Local 2881 Honor Guard, and mental health advocate who desires to share his story of recovery in order to give hope to those battling their own demons.
