Becoming Family Paralyzed by Options May 21st – Jim Moss "Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor." Romans 12:10 “Who is my mother? Who are my brothers? Then he pointed to the disciples and said, “Look, these are my mother and brothers. Anyone who does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother!” Covenant Community says: I'm with you I'm for you I love you no matter what… Bob Sorge – The Secret of the Secret Place What if I told you there was place that anytime you were discouraged you could find hope, anytime you wanted the presence of God you could get it would you be interested? Colossians 3:12-15 12Since God chose you to be the holy people he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. 13Make allowance for each other's faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others. 14Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds us all together in perfect harmony. 15And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful. The primary task of our life is abiding in love.

Throughout my career I have often wondered “what is the formula for success?” Typically landing on “hard work and self-discipline” as the default answer but this has always felt somewhat shallow. And while it is a true statement, It does not provide any of the details needed to really get somewhere. For example, you can “work really hard” but in the absence of a plan you will find yourself working in circles.   Captain Jim Moss, starting with Firefighter Functional Fitness (discussed in episode 34) and now Firefighter Success, shares the formula, the tools needed and the plan to execute. Jim nicely articulates 20 core principles that will give your “hard work and self-discipline” some direction and focus. In episode 61 we unpack many aspects of Moss' personal philosophies and much more. Enjoy the episode!   Introducing Jim Moss:   Jim Moss is a fire captain and paramedic for the Metro West Fire Protection District in St. Louis County, Missouri.

Good Morning, Colorado, you’re listening to the Daily Sun-Up. It’s Thursday January 7th, and even though there’s a lot of turmoil right now we’re feeling lucky to start the day with you. Today - Peter Marshall was killed in an avalanche near Red Mountain Pass in 2019. His family says the school, the guide, and Backcountry Access violated a raft of laws that led to his death.  But before we begin, let’s go back in time with some Colorado history adapted from historian Derek R Everett’s book “Colorado Day by Day”: Today, we’re going back to January 1899 when, desperate for a new source of income after the collapse of silver mining, Colorado entrepreneurs gave the sweet beets a try. Investors filed to incorporate the Colorado Sugar Manufacturing Company and imported nearly 40 tons of beet seed from Germany. Now, our feature story. The family of a Longmont man killed in an avalanche safety class is now suing the guide and the local rescue group among other parties. The lawsuit is based on research, interviews and reports gathered by the Colorado Avalanche Information Center.  Marshall’s death was the first avalanche fatality of the 2018-19 season. The first ever of a student at the Silverton Avalanche School which is one of the nation’s oldest avalanche education schools.  Colorado Sun reporter Jason Blevins  is joining us today to talk more about the lawsuit. Jason thank you so much for your time, can you start off with an overview of this lawsuit and who is involved? As Jason mentioned, the lawsuit focuses on the mistakes highlighted in the avalanche report, breaking down every step taken leading up to the avalanche. The lawsuit cites several dozen failures including charges of negligence, like failing to communicate the day’s avalanche forecast, and allowing instructors to lead students “into, through and below” avalanche terrain. Jim Moss, a recreation law attorney who has spent more than 30 years working with outdoor recreation companies and clients, suspects that Marshall signed waivers releasing Silverton Avalanche School from liability in case of an accident.  Moss sees the case, if it goes to trial, hinging on the testimony of expert witnesses.  Thanks for listening. Before we go, here are a few stories that you should know about today: Four members of Colorado’s congressional delegation were in the U.S. House chambers during Wednesday's deadly riot at the Capitol. All four escaped unharmed. They described their harrowing ordeal to The Colorado Sun's Jesse Paul. You can read more at coloradosun.com. Some Colorado counties are struggling to roll out vaccination programs. But Summit County is receiving praise for its approach to distribution. Officials say the county’s drive-thru method for distributing the vaccine has received attention across the state and nationally. Mesa County's clerk has posted claims of voter fraud without providing evidence and despite assurances from election officials nationwide that the November election was safe and secure. The Daily Sentinel reports that Clerk and Recorder Tina Peters tweeted on Sunday that ballots could be counted more than once and that software used in voting machines could be manipulated.

Firefighter health, wellness and fitness-for-duty – you have often heard us address these topics because they define our abilities as firefighters. If you do not take care of yourself, how do you expect to be able to care for others? Our returning guests, Chief Dan Kerrigan and Capt. Jim Moss, have dedicated themselves to teaching just how important these topics are, not just by learning about them, but by embracing their values and making these values part of your life. If you want to be a firefighter and serve your community to the best of your ability, then you have to devote yourself to more than knowing what equipment is on which apparatus or how to tie a bunch of knots. You must take care of yourself! Chief Kerrigan and Capt. Moss, wrote, what some might call the “bible” of firefighter health and wellness, “Firefighter Functional Fitness.” They discuss the “pillars” of firefighter overall wellness, which includes areas such as restorative rest, proper hydration and much more. If you care about your role as a firefighter, listen or watch this episode and I would suggest having a pad of paper and a pencil nearby. You are going to learn!

Today we’re talking about something near and dear to my heart, firefighter functional fitness. In this episode, I have a great conversation with Dan Kerrigan and Jim Moss, the authors of Firefighter Functional Fitness, basically the fitness “bible” for firefighters. If these guys aren’t on your radar yet, they will be after this! Their practical approach to functional fitness as it specifically relates to the fire service is what they are well known for. There are some bold, but much-needed claims that they make in their book and oftentimes on their social media. Things like, “The extent to which a firefighter develops their cardiovascular capacity will ultimately determine whether they are an asset or a liability on the fireground.” These are hard truths that we sometimes choose to ignore and in doing so, we shirk accountability. You’ll hear me ask them about the 4 Pillars of Firefighter Functional Fitness and how accountability plays a huge role in it. You’ll also hear me talk to them about how being mindful in your physical training also relates to building your character as well as your leadership skills. Join the brotherhood of firefighters and EMS professionals who want to civilize their minds, and make savage their bodies by joining the IGNITEd Firefighter Podcast Community on Facebook. This is where you can connect with me and other firefighters all over the world!

Chief Happiness Officer and Co-Founder of Plasticity Labs, Jim Moss, was a Hall of Fame, gold medal-winning, pro athlete. But, in the weeks leading up to the 2009 season, he was suddenly rendered acutely paralyzed from a rare autoimmune disease. As an athlete of this caliber, he knew what it would take to fight his way back. Regardless, the doctors weren’t sure how long it would take to walk again. Ignoring the naysayers, Jim hacked his own healing, focused on being grateful and learning the science of mood and performance. He walked out of the hospital six weeks later. The moral of the story? Mood drives performance. When you have a transformational experience like this, you are compelled to share it with the world.

While some firefighters take fitness-for-duty seriously, they often run into the "hard wall" of those who either don't think it's necessary of afraid of punitive actions if the do participate. Well-known fire officers and fitness "gurus," Dan Kerrigan and Jim Moss return to "5-Alarm Task Force" with a concise summary of their successful class taught at this year's FDIC 2018: "10 Steps to Cultivate a Culture of Firefighter Fitness in Your Department." This podcast only runs about 1 hour, but Dan & Jim give it their all to explain the "why" and how" to achieve this goal in your station and/or department. Maybe the single most important lesson everyone should take away from this podcast is that it does not require a "second-mortgage" on your station to fund a great fitness program for every firefighter. Tune in to this podcast to learn the 10 steps to help change the mindset of your comrades and officers!

Tell me a little about yourself and where are you a firefighter? How long? What did you do before?   37 years old, ten years in the fire service, 13 as a paramedic. I am a Lieutenant/Paramedic with the Metro West Fire Protection District in St. Louis County, Missouri. I was in college before the fire service.   2. What was the hardest time of your life? What tools did you use to get through it?   Dealing with the death of my father, to whom I was very close. He passed away due to complications from open-heart surgery. He was overweight, had diabetes, and didn’t take care of himself. My faith in God and my family/friends are what helped me to get through his passing. His declining health during the last two years of his life was a big wake up call to me and my fitness. His father also passed away from heart issues, so I know I have a genetic predisposition to what they battled. My dad’s death forced me to focus on better nutrition (less sugar, alcohol, and processed foods).   3. What are your greatest successes?   Being happily married for 14 years to my amazing wife Ali and having our three children. It’s an honor to be a training officer and lieutenant at my fire department, and my book has had worldwide success, but my family is my most significant success and priority.   4. Now that you have experienced life a little, what would you tell your 20-year-old self?   Pick your battles… you don’t always have to be right.Don’t let your pride get the best of you. Be humble, be teachable, learn from your mistakes, apologize.Start taking care of yourself physically, mentally, and emotionally as early as you can.Your time in the fire service isn’t a sprint. Take time to really master the basics.Worry less about career advancement, and more about connecting with the people you work with.   5. Who is your greatest role model and why?   My father. He always made his children a priority in his life. He coached my teams, always told us that he loved us, and he made it a priority to spend time with his kids simply. He was the hardest worker I know. He went through an incredible about of hardship as a child and had a terrible father, but he was a great dad to my siblings and me.   6. Being a past firefighter myself there was a lot of jokes being played on one another. Especially myself.Any particular stories that stand out? I’ve got nothing that comes to mind…   7. If you had a chance for a "do-over" in life, what would you do differently? Or would you keep everything the same?   I’ve made my fair share of mistakes, but I definitely believe that everything happens for a reason. Even though I’ve failed and fallen short a lot, it makes the victories (big and small) that much better. I wouldn’t change anything.   8. What do you feel most proud of?   Being able to support and provide a comfortable living for my family; this is only by the grace of God. I believe in being a good steward of what has been entrusted to you, and that is what I have tried to do—work hard and take advantage of the opportunities afforded to me.   10. What do you want your tombstone to say?   “Protector, provider, servant, man of God.”   11. Why did you become a firefighter?   This is a funny one. I was in college to become a high school Spanish teacher. It was my junior year, and I decided I wanted to become a firefighter because 1) I couldn’t see myself behind a desk and in front of a classroom for 5 days a week, 2) I wanted a job that required hard physical work, 3) I wanted to be able to serve others and also have an ever-changing environment, and 4) I liked the firefighter schedule. (my schedule now is two days on and four days off… I love it).   13. How do you spend your free time? What free time? Haha. I have three kids, and the youngest is six months old. I am heavily involved with numerous committees at work. I spend most of my “free time” promoting Firefighter Functional Fitness on social media, taking fitness photos/videos for posts, and writing/speaking.   14

Peter Goral interviews Jim Moss Founder of Plasticity Labs. It’s truly amazing how perspective can change everything.  Laurier student and entrepreneur, Jim Moss, learned this invaluable lesson back in 2009. One morning Jim woke up unable to use his lower limbs due to a mysterious neuromuscular disease, quickly ending his professional lacrosse career.  You can only imagine how challenging this would be for your “average joe”, let alone a man who has played for Canada’s National Field & Indoor Lacrosse team for many years. Some say that everything happens for a reason.  Although Jim was not able to return to his original level of physicality, this turning point was the start of something new.  The Smile Epidemic which then morphed into Plasticity Labs based in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. http://www.plasticitylabs.com/
