In this episode, we chat with Jeff Dill, Founder and CEO of the Firefighter Behavioral Health Alliance (FBHA). Jeff shares insights on moral injury, the cultural brainwashing that affects first responders, and the alarming statistics related to firefighter suicides. With a focus on firefighter behavioral health awareness, he explains the importance of accurate suicide data collection and how relationship issues can exacerbate retirement challenges. We dive into the significant mental health hurdles faced by retirees, and Jeff provides actionable strategies for coping with identity loss after leaving the profession. Additionally, we explore how family members can play a pivotal role in supporting retired firefighters as they navigate their new lives. Tune in for an informative conversation that addresses the urgent need for awareness and support within the first responder community.
