In this episode of the Fire Family Collective Podcast, Amanda and Audra Carrion from CarryOnFireFamily, and co-founder of the Dear Chiefs podcast, discuss the unique challenges faced by fire wives and families. Audra shares her journey as a fire wife, the importance of community support, and how to navigate the chaos of family life. They emphasize the significance of communication, the resources available for fire families, and the lighthearted moments that bring joy amidst the challenges. The conversation highlights the strength and resilience of fire families and the importance of sharing experiences to foster connection and understanding.

But it's not all serious, they also talk about their favorite girl dinner, and who is Team Conrad versus Team Jeremiah (The Summer I Turned Pretty).
