The Paramedic’s Dilemma: Is It Worth the Risk of PTSD and Burnout?

  • Summary

  • In this episode, I dive deep into the harsh realities of life as a paramedic—where saving lives comes at a personal cost. With burnout, PTSD, and mental health struggles affecting so many first responders, we ask the hard question: Is becoming a paramedic still worth it?

    I explore the emotional highs and lows of the job, share personal insights on how paramedics navigate trauma, and discuss ways to find meaning amidst the chaos. If you’ve ever wondered whether this path is right for you—or if you're already in the field and searching for support—this episode offers real talk, hard truths, and a message of hope.

    Tune in for:

    • The emotional impact of being on the front lines
    • Managing PTSD and mental health as a paramedic
    • The importance of brotherhood and support in the field
    • How to stay resilient in a high-pressure career

    Whether you're considering this career or living it every day, this conversation is for you.
