AJ’s story is one of survival, strength, and service. Emancipated at 15 and raised in a home marked by addiction and abuse, she found her way into emergency medicine—not just as a career, but as a calling. Now with over a decade of experience in EMS, AJ opens up about the organized chaos she thrives in, the pediatric calls that still sit heavy on her heart, and the deep “why” behind the work she does. This episode is raw, powerful, and deeply human. If you’ve ever wondered how someone turns pain into purpose—AJ’s story is one you won’t forget. 💙 Support the mission: Donate to the William H. “Bill” Butler Jr. Foundation: 🔗 https://www.8158podcast.com/donate 🌐 Website: 🔗 https://www.8158podcast.com 🎙 Want to be a guest?
