After the Call
First responders are trained to run toward danger, protect our communities, and carry the weight of trauma most people will never see. But what happens after the call? After watch foundation is ran entirely by first responders for first responders to get you the support you need.
After the Call, the podcast dedicated to the stories and struggles behind the badge, the turnout gear, and the uniform..
Each week, we’ll bring you powerful conversations with first responders, mental health professionals, and advocates who are breaking the stigma, sharing their journeys, and offering real solutions. We’ll talk about PTSD, resilience, family impact, and the resources that can make a difference.
Because the job doesn’t just leave scars on the body — it affects the mind, the heart, and the people who serve alongside us. And no one should have to carry that burden alone.
This is After the Call — where you’ll find Strength through resilience.

From the big cheese to “Forrest” 🐎
Veronica, CEO and one of the founders of After Watch Foundation, sits down to share her why and the road that led her here.
This episode is raw and real. Veronica opens up about the tough realizations, the hard fights, and the moments that could have broken her but didn’t. She made it out alive, stronger, and more determined than ever.
Now she’s focused on one thing. Going back into the trenches she once stood in and pulling others out with her. This is a story about survival, purpose, and choosing to turn pain into something that changes lives.
If you’ve ever felt stuck, exhausted, or alone after the fight, this one is for you.
