100 - Part 2: Finding Faith Healing and Purpose with Matty Fiorenza

Episode 100 – Part 2: Finding Faith Healing and Purpose with Matty Fiorenza In part two of our 100th episode celebration, Conrad Weaver reconnects with firefighter Matthew (Matty) Fiorenza, one of the central voices from the documentary PTSD9-1-1. Matty opens up about life since the film’s release—the ups and downs of recovery, his faith journey, breakthroughs in treatment (including the powerful impact of the Stellate Ganglion Block), and his new role supporting first responders through treatment programs, speaking, and mentorship. He also shares the deeply personal story of how his healing journey not only transformed his mental health but also made way for new life—literally—with the birth of his daughter after treatment. Matty’s honesty, humility, and encouragement are a beacon of hope for first responders navigating their own storm.   Support Matty's Non-Profit: https://frprfoundation.com/   +++++ FIRST RESPONDER WELLNESS PODCAST   Order the PTSD911 Film and Educational Toolkit here: https://ptsd911movie.com/toolkit/ Web site:  https://ptsd911movie.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ptsd911movie/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ptsd911movie/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClQ8jxjxYqHgFQixBK4Bl0Q Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/first-responder-wellness-podcast/id1535675703 Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2wW72dLZOKkO1QYUPzL2ih Purchase the PTSD911 film for your public safety agency or organization: https://ptsd911movie.com/toolkit/ The First Responder Wellness Podcast is a production of ConjoStudios, LLC   Copyright ©2025 ConjoStudios, LLC - All rights Reserved.
