SHIFT CHANGE Podcast

by Jason Blount

As a personal strategic coach, I'm taking all my experience of 25 years as a Firefighter Paramedic, caring for those going through some of the worst days of their lives, and combining it with how I went through my own personal crisis. Taking the lessons learned, this podcast is to help those suffering, to shorten their own journey through a crisis. To simply say that even the smallest of shifts can create changes that are long-lasting. Changing the very trajectory of our lives!
