In this episode, we sit down with the Mike Demarino of a first responder-owned fitness and wellness company that’s on a mission to rebuild confidence, resilience, and purpose in our fire, EMS, and law enforcement communities.

He's seen the toll the job takes—mentally, physically, emotionally. He has lived through the pandemic, riots, and moments when the country seemed at war with itself. And now, he's showing up to lead something new.

We talk: 🔥 The real struggles behind the uniform—and how fitness helps fight back 💪 The role of community in rebuilding motivation and resilience 💛 His commitment to giving back through causes like:

• Tunnel to Towers
• Elementary school programs
• Individual departments in need
• Beyond the Badge NYC 🚓 How YOU can join the mission and train with purpose

Whether you’re a first responder or a friend who wants to be part of the solution, this episode will light a fire.
