In this captivating episode, we delve into the remarkable story of Mikayla, a paramedic whose journey will leave you inspired. Mikayla's honesty and humor are truly empowering, demonstrating that one can navigate through challenging experiences and emerge stronger.
Following a diagnosis of PTSD after a harrowing call, Mikayla shares her insights on the importance of acknowledging our feelings and taking steps towards healing. She emphasizes that recognizing the need for change is distinct from taking action and challenges the notion of "toughing it out" when it comes to trauma.
Mikayla holds a deep sense of purpose in carrying on her father's legacy. With a father who was a retired police officer, she is motivated to honor his memory and make a positive impact in her own life and career.
Mikayla chooses to openly discuss her experiences because she once felt isolated, unaware that others in her profession were going through similar struggles. She encourages open dialogue and emphasizes that everyone copes with trauma differently. By sharing our stories, we contribute to a collective resource pool that supports and uplifts others.
Throughout her journey, Mikayla realized that recognizing the need for help is only the first step, taking action is where true transformation occurs. Her resilience and determination serve as an inspiration for anyone facing adversity, reminding us that with self-credit and proactive measures, we can create positive change in our lives.
