About this listen
In this episode of the Convergent Impact Leadership Podcast, Chief Drew Hoehn of Red, White & Blue Fire Protection District (Breckenridge, CO) reflects on nearly 30 years in the fire service—from a post-9/11 move to Summit County to co-leading a department with a rare dual-chief model.
With thoughtful perspective and hard-won experience, Chief Hoehn shares what it means to lead with humility, shape culture through example, and make high-stakes decisions without losing your humanity. Whether navigating a medical crisis, working across cultures in Central America, or empowering future leaders, his approach is grounded, candid, and refreshingly self-aware.
🔥 Tune in to hear:
✅ What a dual-chief model looks like—and why it works for RWB Fire
✅ How medical adversity reshaped his leadership lens
✅ The importance of emotional maturity and heart-forward leadership
✅ Why judgment—not assumptions—is a critical leadership muscle
✅ Lessons from training EMS providers in Honduras
✅ How inclusion, succession, and vulnerability build long-term strength
This episode explores how to lead with clarity, care, and conscience—especially when the decisions are hard and the stakes are real.
