Description: Trigger Warning: This episode discusses the aftermath of the LA wildfires, including destruction, displacement, and animal rescue. So please take care and caution while listening. Hello, Heal Squad. It’s been an incredibly challenging time for the city of Los Angeles. The ongoing wildfires have left a heartbreaking mark on so many communities, but amidst the devastation, one thing remains clear: the unwavering spirit of Angelenos. Countless people have stepped up to support families who have been displaced and show what it means to be LA Strong. In today’s emotional episode, Maria sits down with three incredible guests: Dr. Maria Pyrdek, Chief Veterinarian at Pasadena Humane; California firefighter Chien Yu; and renowned PR founder Ashlee Margolis. Together, they share their raw emotions and inspiring efforts to help rebuild lives and guide our city on its path to healing. You’ll hear the touching story of how 1,000 pets have been reunited with their families, a first-hand account from a firefighter who faced the flames in those critical first moments, and the raw, emotional realities of families rebuilding their lives—some leaving behind pride to accept the essentials they need to start over. It’s a powerful episode filled with resilience, hope, love, and most of all healing.  Episode Links:   Pasadena Humane Fire Relief Resources Give to Pasadena Humane Help Chien’s Kids’school Chein Yu GoFundMe  Follow The A.List More GoFundMe Stories to Support: Donate to Jackie GoFundMe Help Shahada’s Mom  GoFundMe **please contact Heal Squad if you have a vacant place in Pasadena area for her to stay Help Marike’s friend GoFundMe Save Kelly’s hometown hangout Paliskates Pete’s GoFundMe Give Pete’s Neighbors Hope Hector Consuegra & Josh Thatcher & His Block & Master GoFundMe List Charities to donate to for LA Wildfires:  Baby2Baby https://donate.baby2baby.org/give/648067/#!/donation/checkout CalFire Benevolent Foundation https://calfire.foundation/donations/  California Fire Foundation https://cpf.salsalabs.org/cff-donation/index.html  Pali Charter High: https://givebutter.com/raisepali Altadena Girls: https://www.pledge.to/altadena-girls HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website: https://www.healsquad.com/ Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront AquaTru: https://aquatruwater.com/ code: HEALSQUAD AirDoctor: https://airdoctorpro.com/ code: HEALSQUAD Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Sleep Number: https://www.sleepnumber.com/ ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.
