In this episode of NOON we have Mike Worthen.

Mike has been in emergency services since 1989, he worked in private ambulance, fire department, as a flight medic, and even time at the County Coroner’s Office. More than three decades in this profession have shaped how he sees both the job and its emotional cost.

We talk about the weight first responders carry, how detachment can protect us but still follow us home, and why culturally competent mental health support is critical in our field.
