Manage episode 375462586 series 2967696
In this week's conversation, we are honored to be joined by our good friend Jon Engle of Hold the Line Fly Fishing. Jon is one of the most solid and generous men we know and through his work with Hold the Line, he is helping men and women begin to deal with the trauma that they carry. Jon gets into the science behind why something like fly fishing is such a great tool for dealing with stress, and how shockingly high the suicide rates are in the firefighting community and he shares candidly about a few of his own struggles.
