Strengthening Responder Resilience | David Dachinger
In this episode our guest David Dachinger talks with host Derek O. Hanley about the many ways he endeavors to strengthen the resilience of first responders since retiring from the fire service. From his "Responder Resilience" and "Igniting The Shift Within" podcasts, his books "Helping the Helpers" and "Live Calm With Cancer (...and Beyond), to his work as a peer coach for 22Zero, and organization that works to eliminate Veteran and first responder suicide.
David Dachinger is a retired Fire Lieutenant/EMT who has dedicated over 21 years to leading emergency services. As a company officer, he often held critical roles, including Shift Commander and Incident Commander. Today, David hosts the podcasts "Responder Resilience" and "Igniting The Shift Within," where he engages with experts on first responder mental health, wellness, leadership, and post-traumatic growth.
David also serves as a peer coach for 22Zero (https://22zero.org/), continuing his commitment to supporting first responders. He is co-author of "Helping the Helpers", a guide to first responder mental wellness.
A Grammy Award® nominee, David's career in the music industry included collaborations with legendary artists such as Roberta Flack, Usher, Celine Dion, and The Isley Brothers as a mixing engineer and producer.
