    165: Resilience Through Fitness, How to Make Health and Fitness work for Your First Responder Life, w/ active LEO Deven Kennedy

    Send us a textJust in time for New Years... an episode focused on not only building, training, and elevating your body- but RESILIENCE- aka building, training, and elevating your mind.

How do you adapt programs when the week's schedule gets turned upside down with staying late, getting called in for court, and incident stress through the roof?Police officer Deven Kennedy retur...

    162: How to Build Leadership through Ownership, Looking at our Narratives to Lead and Live Better w/ L.S. (Luke) Goozdich

    Send us a textLeadership starts with Ownership- leading yourself. There are two dynamics here to underline. The first is the recognition that you need to take charge, embrace growth, and model excellence for yourself if you are to take charge, embrace growth and support excellence in others. Also, even for people who do not think of themselves as leaders due to role or rank- you absolutely are. Anyone you touch in your work or efforts outside of work, anyone who observ...

    161: Why are police marriages and relationships so hard? (And what we should do about it)

    Send us a textI appreciate the applicant who asked this question- way to be aware and set up for success!Frequently, we say and hear, “marriage is hard.” We say first responder marriages are harder. In this acknowledgement, are we acknowledging higher likelihood for defeat? Do we give ourselves “an out” too easily? In this episode, I cover some of the points I outlined in a recent Police 1 column article, tackling the topic, much of it a genesis from many conversations I’ve had on Blue ...

    159: Police Fitness Standards- Good, Bad, and the Ugly (What can/should be done?) w/ LEO Chris Kuras (Tactical Human Performance) and Scott Howell (Iron Sights podcast)

    Send us a textAcross the nation for years, we have seen headlines of lowered (or removed!) fitness standards. Many able and effective police recruits are disillusioned with the check box standards or academy exercise regimens. One can see why agency leaders across the nation have appealed and asked to reduce or remove standards, citing a lack of candidates.. but it doesn't mean it makes any sense whatsoever and surely is the ultimate can-kick.Many officers and trainers are seeing ...
