About this episode

In this episode, we sit down with Jason Sautel, a former firefighter, author of The Rescuer, and an advocate for mental health in the first responder community. Jason shares his incredible story of rising from a troubled childhood, battling trauma on the front lines, and finding a deeper purpose through faith and service.

Key Takeaways:
