Brothers in Battle’s First Lady Andrea Trestrail and cadre will be presenting a 3-day fire spouse lecture series, designed in a flexible half-day format and built exclusively for those who stand behind the badge. This experience dives into the real, unfiltered realities of life as a fire spouse and opens discussion to the resiliency, sacrifice, identity, lifestyle, struggles, and the wins that make it all worth it.

This is a safe space for the fire spouse; a place where women from across the country come together to be seen, heard, and understood by people who get it. Expect meaningful conversations, shared experiences, genuine camaraderie, and lasting connections with spouses from all over the USA who are walking the same path.

Created to run alongside the conference, this series allows spouses to be present with their firefighters while also carving out intentional time to invest in themselves, recharge, and reconnect. Life as a fire spouse isn’t easy, but we hope we’ll make you feel at home, remind you that you’re not alone, and send you back stronger than you arrived.

At the end of each session - meet up with your firefighter for lunch, join them in the theater for the afternoon Main Lecture Series, or recharge before the social nights!

For traveling families, kids are welcome!
