In this episode, I unpack the parts of emergency management that live in my War Bag — the quiet work, the human moments, and the behind-the-scenes reality most people never see.
From late-night shelters and terrible coffee to the woman who looked at me and said, “I don’t know where to go now,” and the helicopter rescue during California’s heavy rains, this is the real side of EM: the steady, human work that holds communities together when everything else breaks.
Stay safe. Stay true to yourself. Stay Beyond the SOP.
