In this episode, we make a push into the flames with Lt. Tina Guiler, a fire Lieutenant and fire inspector who joined the Miami-Dade Fire Rescue in 1999. But her story doesn't stop there. Tina is also the Owner and CEO of Triple F - Fierce Female Firefighters, an initiative that sparked the creation of the Triple F Dolls. These dolls are more than just toys; they're beacons of empowerment for young girls, introducing them to the world of firefighting.
Tina opens up about the personal challenges she faced as a female in a predominantly male profession. We delve into the common misconceptions about female firefighters and how these myths need to be shattered. Tina's straightforward dialogue gives us a raw, unfiltered look into the life of a trailblazer.
We also explore the impact of the Triple F Dolls. What motivated Tina to develop these empowering figures? How do they influence young girls and reshape the community's perception of firefighting? Tina believes these dolls are not just changing the fire service; they're igniting a revolution of inclusivity and representation. In 2020, Tina founded the Triple F Foundation, which supports frontline first responders dealing with cancer, injury, and mental illness, and provides public safety education and training. As a breast cancer survivor herself, Tina's resilience is palpable. Tune in for an episode that promises to be as fierce as Tina Guiler herself.
