In this Episode Zach, a military veteran and full-time firefighter from a small farm community in Ohio, opens up about his life and personal struggles. He speaks about the guilt he carries following a friend's suicide in 2014, traumatic incidents involving children he's witnessed as a paramedic matching in age to his own son, and the significant psychological impact of a false accusation of sexual assault in the military that almost led him to suicide. In the aftermath of his legal battle, he chose to leave the military and focus on rebuilding his life. Recently, he began therapy and shares his renewed commitment to his mental health, professional life, and family. He also discusses his experience with the Employer Assistance Program (EAP) and acknowledges the importance of finding a counselor who understands the specific experiences and traumas that emergency service professionals face.
