About this listen
n this candid and powerful episode, we sit down with the widely recognized voice of The Salty Paramedic. He shares his extensive career journey in paramedicine and explores how his unique brand of humor serves as a vital, yet sometimes misunderstood, coping mechanism in the field.
We dive deep into the raw realities of the job, discussing the emotional toll, the insidious nature of burnout, and how the cumulative impact of trauma can manifest. The Salty Paramedic bravely confronts the ingrained "suck it up" culture in EMS and its devastating effects on mental health.
Most importantly, we explore the profound message of his book, "Don't Lose Yourself," offering insights and actionable strategies for providers to maintain their identity, manage PTSD symptoms, and find genuine healing amidst the chaos. This conversation is a call to break the silence and ensure that no one loses themselves in the service of others.
