About this listen

Every responder learns to carry a physical toolbox on the job. But what about the mental one?


In this episode, McKenzie, founder of Mind Medic Counseling, takes us inside the world of first responder mental health. Drawing on her perspective as both a spouse and a clinician, she lays out the tools for the toolbox — practical ways responders can manage trauma, break through stigma, and finally get the kind of care built for them.


This isn’t abstract therapy talk. It’s raw, usable strategies for those who’ve seen too much and carried it too long. McKenzie brings the kind of insight that could mean the difference between burning out and finding a way forward.
