We all need people who believe in us, challenge us, and understand us, but we don’t always notice which one is missing. This week’s Friday Truth looks at how those gaps show up in our lives and in the fire service, why belonging often starts with someone paying attention, and what happens when we become the person who fills the gap for someone else. Sometimes the people who need us most are the ones who look like they don’t need anything at all.
Being genuinely understood in even one important part of your life affects every other part of it.
