Over the weekend, our Kansas City community lost a firefighter — a public servant whose life was taken while responding to a medical call. He wasn’t battling flames, but he was showing up the way first responders always do — to help. His death is a tragedy that has rippled through the hearts of so many.
While nothing we share here can fix that loss, we wanted to offer something useful in his honor — a simple, practical safety guide for families and fellow business owners.
🧯 Fire safety starts with the basics.
Today, we’re sharing a quick resource on how to use a fire extinguisher. Print it out, share it with your team, or go over it with your kids. It’s a small step — but it’s one that reflects the same mindset of prevention, protection, and care.

Note: Our blog posts are written from within the company. Sometimes by one, sometimes by many. Sometimes, they are like a friendship quilt in which everyone puts forth effort. They are not a result of a social media manager typing into artificial intelligence asking for a 900-word blog post, followed with copy and paste and calling it good. If Cami’s writing…. sentences are sometimes long and the thoughts bounce around. If Cali’s at the keyboard, nothing will be spelled correctly for sure. And if Cadi’s typing away, you’ll get “to the point” and probably spelled correctly. Yes, a lot of C names. Needless to say, clients don’t hire us to write for them (not yet, at least. We are interested in technical writing in our industry if anyone’s looking to hire us and provide housing in a warm winter climate- Only half kidding, of course.) Thanks for showing interest. The goal is to meet clients here and assist business owners on the same journey as us if we can.
