This week, Sophie brings on her very own 911 partner Ashley—an AEMT with sharp instincts, strong soft skills, and a sense of humor that gets them through the longest shifts. Together, they dive into what makes a great EMS team click beyond clinical scope.

From unspoken cues in the heat of a call to how emotional intelligence plays out in tight spaces and high-stress moments, this episode is all about the real-life glue that holds field teams together.

Whether you’re a seasoned provider or new to the truck, this is your invitation to reflect on the human side of EMS—and why your gut might just be your best tool.

🎧 Ride along with Sophie & Ashley as they talk:

• Navigating partnership and team chemistry

• Reading each other without a word

• When “just a feeling” changes the outcome

• Why soft skills matter just as much as clinical skills
