About this listen
In Part Two of their conversation, Brian and Mitch move beyond the light-hearted banter and step into a raw, vulnerable space—one that explores trauma, addiction, recovery, and the mental health battles often faced in silence, especially within the first responder community.
Mitch opens up about childhood trauma, the weight of vicarious pain passed down through family, and the internal battles he faced behind closed doors. Together, they talk candidly about the hidden toll of high-stress professions, the struggle to stay afloat, and the slow, often painful road toward healing.
They also reflect on the importance of faith, family, and the quiet strength that comes from finally choosing honesty over silence. From caffeine-fueled late nights to heavy discussions on suicidal thoughts, this episode is both deeply personal and powerfully relatable.
This isn’t just a conversation—it’s a reminder that you're not alone, and that sharing your truth can be the first step toward healing.
