In this episode I sit down with Ben Wilson. Ben is the owner of F.D.I.R. Fire Training. Ben brings a positive and fresh new look to fire training. Through utilizing social media as a learning tool, Ben brings education to those looking for some quick, basic and informative lessons. He inspires others to bring that knowledge back to their fire departments and engage in conversations, which leads to hands on training.

Ben discusses the impact of positivity and the pursuit of perfection in personal growth. He emphasizes the contagious nature of positivity and the importance of surrounding oneself with like-minded individuals who strive for excellence without the pressure of achieving perfection. Ben believes in treating others with respect and dignity.

You can see the joy that Ben has for this career in his training reels and in our conversation.
