Summary: In this episode Allen Kanerva introduces us to Shane, a long time friend who has traveled the world working as a paramedic and first responder in some incredibly dangerous, high profile areas.  Shane shares his journey from thinking PTSD was a myth to one day realizing he was completely traumatized and in need of help.  We discuss the culture of PTSD awareness within the first responder world and what needs to change in order to bring relief and greater effectiveness to the field with someone who lived it.   The show is intended to provide encouragement for the listener but is for entertainment purposes only and NOT a substitute for proper treatment or to be used in any legal capacity whatsoever.
