Welcome to Episode 107 of "The Things We All Carry." In this insightful episode, we sit down with Joey, a former firefighter paramedic from Florida who spent 12 years serving in Panama City Beach. Joey shares his journey of grappling with PTSD and transitioning out of the fire service about two and a half years ago.
This conversation delves into Joey's experiences navigating life beyond the fire service, offering valuable insights into post-service transition and personal growth. We explore his venture into Conscious Movements, a company born from his own healing journey.
