Recorded in 2018 I'm reposting this episode in 2021, in honor of the 20th anniversary of 9/11. In this episode I talk with 30-year veteran and retired FDNY lieutenant, James J O'Donnell, about his time at Ground Zero and the days, weeks and years that followed September 11, 2001. Listen and journey back to a time when the world shifted in trauma, and first responders working in the bubble of Ground Zero found solace and connection in the outreach and prayers of the world. Also hear about how a group of parents moved past anger to honor their sons of valor through public service. As we say we will never forget, I urge you to read James's book, Sons of Valor, Parents of Faith, found on Amazon, to find inspiration and help future generations understand the human factor of that day - how those who lost their lives did so in service and how the world showed up to honor them.
