180: The Untold Sacrifice, Devotion, and Determination of First Responders with Mari White
from Choose 2 Think: A Christian Podcast about the Bible, the Brain, and Renewing Your Mind · host Victoria D. Lydon, MA | Author and Certified Christian Life Coach
In addition to being a gummy bear addict, cat lover and book worm—Mari White is a two-time Emmy® Award Winning TV Host, Actress and multi-award winning Producer. Trained by mentors from the Actor’s Studio, Mari has performed in various New York Off-Broadway theaters, appeared in multiple films, shows and commercials. She has graced the cover of various magazines, been featured in numerous print ads, and walked fashion week runways. As a versatile host, her credits range from Monday Night Football with ESPN to the first ever live online morning show, AOL Rise. Mari has had the honor of creating, partnering and producing with Christian bands and celebrities to uplift and entertain others through God and family-centered media. On today's show, Mari and I chat about her new movie FIRST RESPONDERS. First Responders is an inspirational movie that celebrates the vitality of marriage and the bonds of friendship, which carry our film’s firefighters, police, and EMTs through their challenges. The movie tells the story of Karen Williams, a trauma therapist, who has witnessed firsthand the special courage that shapes those who work in emergency services. But then her husband, a career firefighter, returns from a life changing blaze. Karen discovers that a degree, along with years of counseling first responders, has done little to personally prepare her to help her husband’s battle with PTSD. Unable to see a path to save her marriage, she turns to God and celebrates the truth that through Him all things are possible. Perhaps no one knows this better than the brave men and women who provide emergency services: the ones we call “first responders.” Be sure to share this link with a FIRST RESPONDER and their family today! Not only will this powerful message encourage their heart, it will also validate their efforts and sacrifice! *CHOOSE 2 THINK: Find Peace, Joy, Hope, Health & Freedom Every Day!
