SIM Ep 108 Chops 34: she's a firefighter, kick-ass firefighter

In this Chops, Mick and Hannah basically listen in awe as Dr Sabrina Cohen-Hatton deputy assistant commissioner of the London Fire Brigade, expert psychologist, author and all-round top bird, talks fire safety, the humans behind the badge, why there's space for more women in the service and how we can learn to help ourselves. Seriously, she's incredible and when her book – Through The Fire – comes out next spring, we'll be first in line at Waterstone's. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/standardissuespodcast.
