In this special re-release, Dr. Alexis and Alex revisit their powerful conversation with Freddie Bell, founder of A Gift from Glenn, recorded just days after the January 2025 LA wildfires began.
Freddie shares raw insights from the frontlines of disaster response—from distributing aid to realizing mental health was the missing emergency service. This episode is a reflection on trauma, grief, vicarious exhaustion, and what community healing really demands.
Whether you’re just learning about the fires or still recovering months later, this conversation holds space for real talk and real recovery.
