About this listen
In this powerful and personal episode, we sit down with Paramedic/Firefighter Korie Egolf—who’s not only a dedicated first responder but also a wife and mother. Korie opens up about what it’s really like to be pregnant while working in EMS and fire, drawing from her experience with two pregnancies. We explore the physical and emotional challenges, when to transition to light duty, and how to navigate workplace policies and laws. Korie also shares insight into infertility struggles faced by both women and men in emergency services, as well as the realities of postpartum recovery and returning to shift life. This is a must-listen for anyone balancing the demands of the job with the journey of parenthood.
