You didn’t start this job to hate the people you serve, but resentment doesn’t announce itself; it builds quietly. In this episode, we take a hard look at how public service can twist into public contempt, and how unchecked negativity poisons the mission, the team, and your purpose.
If you're rolling your eyes at every call, mentoring rookies with sarcasm, or finding yourself burned out and bitter, this is your gut check.
You owe it to the public. You owe it to your team. You owe it to yourself.
Time to reset.

After nearly two decades in public safety, I’m not the man I used to be—and neither are most of us. In this episode, I talk about the unseen impact this work leaves on us, what it’s done to me, and how we can start taking some of that back.

In this episode, I share the raw, unscripted experience of stepping into unknown territory—my first time as a vendor at the 2025 Peer Support Conference in Kansas City. What started with self-doubt turned into a reaffirmation of mission. I talk about meeting incredible people from organizations like Tactical Recovery, The Forge, Copline, 10-33 Foundation, Reboot, and Guiding Star Counseling—each doing powerful work in the world of trauma-informed care for veterans, first responders, and public safety professionals.

This one’s not just a recap. It’s a reminder of why Breach Your Mind exists: to bridge the gap between trauma and treatment, to connect those who serve with those who understand, and to fight back against the stigma that still lingers in our professions.

Plus, I introduce a new podcast series—Standing in the Gap—focused on peer support, real talk, and doing the work that actually makes a difference.
