The month of January might be over, but we’re still feeling the effects of the fires that broke out around Los Angeles earlier this year. On this week’s episode, Josh and Sebastian invited firefighter Marco Calderon to talk to us about his experience from inside the devastation, as well as his background and why he wanted to become a firefighter in the first place. We hope you’re just as inspired as we were to hear Marco’s story, and if you’re feeling like Sebastian and want to learn more about what it takes to follow the Firefighter career path, check out Marco’s linktree for more information.
