Being in a very male dominated profession, women in the firefighting profession typically have a unique set of challenges to face...

That's why we have Makenzie Gould on The Anchor Point Podcast today to talk about her career, her ideal nutrition, her fitness routine, making career choices that are advantageous, following your heart, and her ways of putting up up with the haters...

"Mac" (Makenzie) is an 8 year veteran of the fire service and former competitive power lifter... She started out with CalFire's engine program, moved on to the CalFire Helitack program, and ended up on the Redding municipal fire department.

Her perspective is unique when it comes to navigating the fire world - And she is one of those folks that does not take crap from anyone, she follows her passion, and she is a firm believer that ANYONE can do this line of work as long as they put in the work!

To find out more about Makenzie, check out her social media profiles for nutrition, fitness, mentorship, motorcycles, and her incredible cooking skills at:
