In this episode, we welcome Audra and Chelsi from the Dear Chiefs Podcast. Once upon a time in the middle of a pandemic, two fire wives and complete strangers met on the internet and decided to start a podcast for first responders and their families. Three years later the Dear Chiefs podcast is still running strong with a weekly show and tons of great social media content. Through their podcast, Audra, and Chelsi hope to help families understand, support, and build stronger relationships with their first responders, while also finding community and appreciation for themselves. We are also joined by Amy Ramsden, a nurse, and the wife of a law enforcement officer.
All three guests have been married to and built families with first responders. During this episode, they’ll lean on their experiences to discuss the hurdles and challenges frontline workers and their families may encounter, as well as how they can manage or avoid them.
The Minds on the Frontline Podcast is brought to you by the Wayne State University Frontline Strong Together Program. The Minds on Frontline Podcast is designed to inform, educate, and entertain first responders, their families, and the public regarding the realities of frontline work-related mental health challenges.
