This week Chaplain Jim Parkin and co-host Ashley Chandler are joined by Keith Hanks, retired EMT/FireFighter from the Boston area who now works to advocate for first responder mental health and wellness. He is host and producer at The Resilient Responder Podcast, Director of Promotions at First Responder Coaching, and openly shares about his diagnosis of PTSD and his perspective after 21 years in service.
What a great time getting to know Keith this week and hearing about his life, career, and peer support work.
