Krista "Phoenix" Fee / Activist for the First Responder Community

I had the pleasure of sitting down with Krista "Phoenix" Fee earlier this month.  We talked about the struggles facing the first responder community and what she's been doing to proactively address the issues of suicide and a general lack of self care from within our ranks. She has dedicated her life to make a difference, to be someone who has committed to doing something to better the lives of others, every day, better today than we were yesterday thanks to her efforts. Im optimistic for the future, especially when we have people like Krista in this world.Krista's BioMy name is Krista “Phoenix” Fee, and I’m a survivor of childhood sexual abuse & domestic violence.
