  • Episode 321: Hilary Gates
    Feb 8 2026
    In this episode of the Medic2Medic Podcast, Steve sits down with educator, paramedic, writer, and advocate Hilary Gates for a fun, engaging, and wide-ranging conversation about EMS, leadership, education, and human connection.

    Hilary, who serves as Director of Educational Strategy for Prodigy EMS and is co-founder of Six Minutes to Live, brings insight, honesty, and heart to every topic discussed. Throughout the episode, Steve and Hilary explore her unique path into EMS, her work improving systems of care for cardiac arrest, and her commitment to building meaningful, human-centered education that supports both patients and providers.
    The conversation moves easily between storytelling, innovation, leadership, and advocacy, reflecting Hilary’s ability to blend professional expertise with real-world experience. The tone is warm, thoughtful, and often lighthearted—while never losing sight of the realities of the profession.

    One of the most powerful moments in this episode comes during a serious discussion about provider wellbeing and mental health. Steve and Hilary speak candidly about the lack of consistent support in parts of the profession, gaps in leadership response, and the absence of a national system to track EMS personnel suicides. They emphasize the urgent need for better data, stronger accountability, and a culture that treats provider mental health with the same priority as patient care.
