On Today’s show, I welcome Destiny Morris. Destiny is a family and relationship counselor who works with wildland firefighters, first responders, and their families. She offers both group and individual therapy to help those affected by the known challenges in this type of work.
Today, we discuss solutions to combat depression and relationship struggles, communication tips for both families and first responders, and ways to transition back to home life successfully.
We also have a conversation about the very different struggles women and men have when working in this industry and for their loved ones. When it comes to guys and gals, the contrasting struggles will surprise many, even those who are first responders. We discuss how to manage these distinct issues and the obstacles they create at home and in relationships.
At the end of the episode, Destiny takes us through a breathing exercise and short meditation that you can use in your personal life.
I hope you all enjoy it.
