Once a guardian of the law, now a beacon of hope as a certified life coach, Erin guides us through the turbulent waters of first responder mental health. This episode offers an intimate exploration of the challenges faced by those who shield society from its darkest moments, from the haunting suicide rates that shadow their profession to the personal commitment required to support such heroes.Our conversation with Erin is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by first responders and their loved ones. We traverse her transformation from policing Melbourne's streets to coaching resilience from Boston, sharing strategies that fortify the often-precarious balance between the demanding nature of emergency services and a nourishing personal life. For couples on the frontline, she provides a unique perspective on managing relationships that are routinely tested by the rigors of duty.As Erin unveils her podcast, "I Will Hold Space for Your Darkness," we are invited into a sanctuary where the unspoken burdens of first responders are acknowledged and shared. Her stories resonate with the collective heartbeat of a community that knows sacrifice all too well, yet strives for solace in solidarity. If you're connected to the first responder world, whether directly or through a loved one, this episode is an essential companion on the journey towards healing and understanding.FIND ERIN ATInstagram:Â Â Â Â @erinjanecoachingWebsite:Â Â Â Â Â Â www.erinjanecoaching.comFacebook:Â Â Â Â Â Erin Jane CoachingPodcast:Â Â Â Â Â Â âI will hold space for your darkness podcastâ Support the show---------------------------- ANNOUNCING "The Shift Workers Collective" https://join.ahealthyshift.com/the-shift-workers-collective Click the link to learn all about it----------------------------- YOU CAN FIND ME AT Website Instagram LinkedIn Shift Work Health and Wellbeing Seminars One2One Coaching _____________________ Disclaimer: Roger Sutherland is not a doctor or a medical professional.
