37 - Be the Calm in the Storm with AK Dozanti

Being the calm in the storm is what first responders do. But when it comes to your own storm, that's another story! Today on the First Responder Wellness Podcast I talk with AK Dozanti a former Deputy Sheriff who talks about her own journey through PTS and depression and what's she's doing now to help other first responders.

ABOUT THE GUEST

As a former Deputy Sheriff, now First Responder Coach & Specialist, AK Dozanti helps First Responders learn how to manage chronic stress and regulate their nervous systems to prevent burnout and cultivate personal growth despite the pressures of work and home life. Having experienced burnout accompanied with depression, PTS, and adrenal fatigue it has become her life's mission to give back to all Life Savers.

She has blended her experience as a Deputy and Criminal Court Victim Advocate, graduate degree, yoga instructing and multiple other disciplines and modalities to create the Life Saver Academy. Now, coaching individuals, speaking and training at agencies and conferences, AK helps first responders regain their focus as they release the pressure that comes from the job so that they can start living the life they deserve.
