Interview with Retired firefighter, author and CEO James Geering
In this conversation, Janine and James dive into the mental toll of life as a first responder, exploring how storytelling can be a powerful tool for healing. They discuss generational trauma, the silent burden many firefighters carry, and why true courage isn’t just about running into burning buildings—it’s about facing what’s inside.
James shares his journey as a firefighter, opening up about the sleep deprivation, substance reliance, PTSD, and burnout that plague the profession. Together, they tackle the systemic gaps in mental health support, the stigma around seeking help, and the critical role of community, vulnerability, and brotherhood in survival.
This conversation is a call for change—a reminder that compassion, shared experiences, and real conversations are what will create a healthier, stronger fire service.
