Episode notes
In this episode of Solo Spotlight, Ryan sits down with Davis — a tow truck operator with the Alberta Motor Association — for an honest, grounded conversation about what it means to help people on their worst days… and still keep your own peace.
Davis opens up about the unpredictability of roadside calls, the risks that come with working inches from highway traffic, and the emotional regulation it takes to stay patient in high-stress situations. But this isn’t just about towing — it’s about mindset, humility, and the quiet pride of doing a job that most people overlook.
We talk about: – The reality of high-priority calls and wild roadside encounters
– Balancing empathy with emotional boundaries
– The mental tools Davis uses to stay grounded
– Life outside the truck: off-roading, solitude, and finding meaning
