You can change someone's world instantly with a simple gesture of warmth, support, or kindness. And nobody understands the power of small gestures more than today’s guest.
Today I’m joined by Officer Lane Harper of the Birmingham Police Department. He’s worked in law enforcement for more than 20 years, as both an officer and an instructor in the police academy.
In this episode, Lane Harper shares more about his mission with The Power of Life Foundation and how he wants to help some folks see something different the next time they interact with the police.
We covered:
The impact of a positive relationship with the police in his childhood
Why police officers are guardians of the community vs. warriors
How law enforcement can start building relationships in their communities
The accidental discovery of $600—and how it helped launch a new nonprofit
How one simple gesture can turn someone’s world around
