  • ATF/NYPD ret Peter Forcelli - Don't Wait to Ask For Help
    Jul 17 2024
    This is an awesome episode! This guy has done so much and has gone through so much. 9/11 left him with PTSD and he faced the ultimate departmental betrayal. Despite everything he has gone through, he has made it to the other side with his family intact, his heart full, and the ability to see all the good that exists. This week's guest is Peter J. Forcelli is a retired Deputy Assistant Director from the U.S. Department of Justice, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Prior to joining ATF he served for 15 years with the N.Y.P.D. He is a survivor of the 9/11 Terrorist Attacks on the World Trade Center, and the lung cancer that he later developed because of his work in the rescue and recovery efforts at Ground Zero. He wrote a book called The Deadly Path: How Operation Fast & Furious and Bad Lawyers Armed Mexican Cartels

  • Gary Hayes, ret. United Kingdom Police Officer, a Roughy Toughy Bloke with PTSD
    Apr 19 2024
    Gary Hayes comes to us all the way from the United Kingdom! He is the Co-Founder of PTSD999, a charity organization that raises money to provide therapy and services for first responders. They also provide training to help educate and spread the word that PTSD is real and can affect anyone. He is a former police officer and constable in London, United Kingdom and he was a member of the 3rd Battalion Royal Green Jackets. He was a semi-pro football player. After spending most of his life being a “roughy toughy bloke”, the years of trauma began to add up and brought him within inches of taking his own life. Now he shares his story with his fellow officers and first responders and works his butt off to help those who are struggling. Gary is an amazing man who you don’t want to miss.

  • Nicki Impastato - The First Responder Life Total Package
    Mar 3 2024
    This episode is with the amazing Nicki Impastato! Nicki and I sit down and talk about her life working as a dispatcher while raising two kids with her Battalion Chief husband. And then we talk about doing all this while struggling with PTSD. Nicki also worked in a system that didn’t know what to do with her when she started struggling. She says, “There was something seriously wrong with me, and they knew about it, and nobody took care of me.” We so often depend on those around us to point out that we are struggling because sometimes we cannot see what is going on around us when we are just trying to survive. Nicki also talks about finding a life and purpose after a long career as a dispatcher. One place she landed was in an equine therapy program called Zenerosity and she became an equine specialist. This woman is truly amazing - I promise you will feel better about everything after listening to her.

Real, honest and informative

This podcast has helped me more than I imagined it would! As a fire wife, I have struggled to be supportive in the way my husband needed me to be. He doesn’t like to talk about the calls, so he has internalized and compartmentalized for years. After listening to this show (for hours and hours on end), I am learning how to be the wife he needs me to be. I’m starting to understand why he tends to be frustrated and irritated after a shift. This show has put so much into perspective for me, helping guide me to be more supportive in the way he needs. After talking to him about the show, we have begun to change the way we communicate. For the first time ever he has finally said he KNOWS he can talk to me when he feels the weight of the job tugging on him. That moment was SO BIG! Marriage is hard. First responder marriage is way harder. We have come close to just calling it quits, but this podcast has helped us get back on track. It’s real. It’s honest. It’s INCREDIBLE. If you feel like no one understands or you just can’t handle with the first responder life, listen to this podcast. It will change your perspective and help you start the journey to healing and happiness!
