In this episode Kari Russo joins us along with Ed, a member of the Orlando Fire Department, to talk about trauma among first responders and how training peer support groups for first responders (like Ed is a part of), we can work to save lives by relieving initial trauma suffering before encouraging longer term care in the hands of a trauma trained clinician or coach.
