We are thrilled to present Tanner and Mandy Bazer as we talk to them about family life in emergency services. Listen to the amazing strategies they employ to help each other and their family stay grounded, through shift work, SWAT calls, and FTO training. Mandy recognizes when Tanner needs his time hunting. Tanner knows when it is time for Mandy to have a SPA Day.
Tanner has come a long ways from a new officer in the last 7 years. He has become a training officer, SWAT Operator, along with being a officer who takes the time to work through the complicated calls. With his long hours and demands on his time, his wife Mandy reflected on her military experience which brought her a level of understanding for the demands on Tanner. She recognizes when Tanner needs to return to the woods. They bring so much grace for each other, Gabe and I were impressed and humbled to see a family working together to support each other.
We hope you find some reminders, hints, and ideas to help keep connected and build resiliency.
