In this final part of my conversation with Nich Woolf, a highly experienced paramedic.

Nich shares stories from his career, including a harrowing incident with a man on fire and his transformative experiences in Afghanistan, where he provided crucial medical training.

He discusses the emotional toll of the job, the camaraderie among first responders, and his extensive charity work, including facilitating medical care in underserved regions. Nich also recounts helping Afghan medical professionals and their families flee the Taliban.

Despite personal risks and the challenges of working in conflict zones, Nich's dedication to humanitarian work and resuscitation training shines through.

The episode highlights his published book, 'Resuscitating Afghanistan,' and discusses the logistics and emotional challenges of delivering medical aid in high-stress environments.
