083. It’s Okay Not To Be Okay… But Stop Pretending You’re Fine [Part 2]
Description
You're the fixer. But what happens when it’s you that needs fixing?
In this hard-hitting follow-up, Brad Schriefer peels back the layers on substance abuse, trauma loops, and why we suck at taking our own advice. He offers real, actionable strategies for breaking the cycle — without losing your edge or your identity.
This isn’t therapy — it’s survival.
What You’ll Learn:
- Why the firehouse culture of “fix everyone but yourself” is setting us up to fail
- How to replace the bottle with tools that actually work
- One way to rewire your brain and protect your crew
- The science behind why the gym is sometimes the best therapy
- A better definition of “strength” — one that actually saves lives
If you’re a firefighter who knows something has to change — but doesn’t want to lose who you are — this one's for you.
🔥 Ready to feel unstoppable in your gear? Fit For Service is the 8-week training plan built for firefighters to regain strength, confidence, and endurance on the job. 💪 Start your journey here!
