Mike discusses the shock and heartbreak of being first on the scene after the 2011 Joplin, MO EF5 tornado, the terror of his vehicle being tossed by the 2013 El Reno tornado - the largest tornado on record - and of nearly being hit by a surprise tornado while covering Hurricane Irma live in Florida in 2017. He also talks candidly about his mental health journey, the process of recovering from PTST that resulted from the traumatic events in El Reno, and the importance of recognizing the moments when we need to pause and ask for help.
