Ever cried in the ambulance because you felt completely overwhelmed? Sophie Fuller has—and she's done something powerful with that experience. In this raw discussion, the Life and Sirens podcast host shares her most vulnerable stories about impostor syndrome, burnout, and finding your way as a new paramedic.

Sophie's path to EMS started in the most unexpected way—from a 39-day hospitalization that included being intubated over the holidays to signing up for EMT school from her hospital bed. But becoming a paramedic brought new challenges: crushing self-doubt, constant anxiety before shifts, and the fear that everyone would discover she was a "fraud." Sound familiar? You're not alone. This conversation dives deep into the psychological struggles that plague EMS providers, especially new medics who lose their support structure after paramedic school.

Learn the difference between destructive doubt and healthy doubt, discover cognitive reframing techniques to combat catastrophizing and black-and-white thinking, and understand why bravery means doing things scared. Sophie emphasizes one crucial truth: you cannot fight impostor syndrome alone. So hit play and let’s do this together.
