As you dive into this course like the warrior that you are, I will show you how to evolve, become resilient, learn to not let certain things matter, and to always be gracious. The more that we hold our own counsel, our thoughts and feelings stated at the right time and to the right supportive people or groups, the more successful we become.  

Roughly 4% of firefighters are women. Statistically, there are more women, around 14% are either in the military or in Law Enforcement. The usual explanation for such a low percentage is that women simply aren’t up to the extreme physical demands of the job. Any effort to increase their numbers in the fire service, the argument goes, would mean a dangerous erosion of the fitness standards needed for firefighting. 

But what if we’re thinking about the problem all wrong? What if qualities like compassion and warmth — stereotypically associated with women — are just as necessary for success in firefighters as “masculine” traits like strength and stamina? 

Hiring women is one thing; retaining them and creating fair work environments is another. When someone does pull a rude prank or make an offensive comment, it’s important to address it right away. “I always had to prove I could do everything,” said Alicia McCoy, the acting fire chief at Abbott Laboratories who has also served with Winthrop Harbor Fire
Department.

That attitude has largely gone away, but other struggles remain. The way to increase acceptance of women in the fire service, they propose, is to have a more balanced view of what it
takes to be a good firefighter. Traits like empathy, which are thought of as feminine, are just as legitimate and critical to success as traditionally masculine traits, they say. Emphasizing those qualities can make it easier to
imagine women in a firefighter’s job. 

"Where energy meets obstructions, it burns and when all of our energy builds up beyond what a given individual can tolerate, it demands release. 

Anger grows into rage.

Sorrow turns to despair.

Concern becomes depression.

Physical aches becomes agony.

Energy can also becomes a curse:

Like a river, it can bring life, but untamed, it can unleash a raging flood of destruction."
