Ep 48 Guest on First Alarm Foundation with Carolyn Acosta and Jen Herrera
Description
Today, I had the incredible honor of being a guest on the @firstalarmfamilyfirst Podcast with the hosts @carolynacosta and @mrsjenherreratv . We dove deep into the vital topic of mental health—an issue that affects us all, yet often remains in the shadows. During our conversation, we explored the importance of seeking help and the power of open dialogue, especially when it comes to discussing mental health with our significant others and children and much more. It’s crucial for us as parents, caregivers, and life partners to create a safe space where we all feel comfortable sharing our thoughts and feelings. I also shared my own journey and experiences with mental health, highlighting the struggles and triumphs that have shaped who I am today and what inspired me to pursue mental health as my profession and dedicate my life to serving others. Carolyn lost her husband to his struggle with PTSD, and now she has devoted her life to helping others in his honor. Jen is the daughter of a retired firefighter and is married to a firefighter. They both understand firsthand how compounding trauma can impact first responders. These women are a powerful duo who are making themselves known in the mental health space. It was an honor to spend that time with you both. Thank you Follow them on IG: @firstalarmfamilyfirst @firstalarmfoundation
