About this listen
In this special episode of Duty Beyond Duty, host Manny Guzman is joined by his son Josiah and his niece Jade to share a powerful and rarely heard perspective—growing up as children of first responders who also served in the U.S. military.
They open up about childhood memories shaped by uniforms, deployments, late nights, and the emotional weight of having parents who protect and serve. From pride and resilience to fear, responsibility, and unspoken sacrifice, Josiah and Jade reflect on how service-oriented households shaped who they are today.
This episode shines a light on the often-overlooked voices of first responder and military kids—the silent strength behind the badge and the uniform.
Because duty doesn’t end at work—it follows you home.
