Dr. Massimino is a licensed clinical and forensic psychologist, working with one of the largest law enforcement agencies in the United States. Dr. Massimino focuses on confidential law enforcement sensitive service for active-duty military, veterans, law enforcement, first responders, health care professionals and their families. Dr Massimino has been practicing for over 14 years and has been extremely successful in implementing department training in the advancement of therapy related issues that affect both law enforcement and the prisoners she serves on a daily basis.

    E20 - "The Coffee Roasters" - An interview with Brad and Heather Davis from Battle Born Coffee Roasters

    This is Episode 20 of @lets_grab_a_cup podcast. “The Coffee Roasters” – An interview with Brad and Heather Davis, Owners and Operators of Battle Born Coffee Roasters. Brad and Heather met at a young age. Brad had his eye on Law Enforcement, while Heather’s background was in graphic design. Brad ultimately joined the Customs and Border Patrol, stationed at the US/Mexico Border. After approximately 12 years protecting our country’s borders, the pandemic hit. Between politics, anti-police rhetoric, and the need to battle as hard-working Americans, “Battle Born Coffee Roasters” was created. Brad and Heather utilize their skills as they dive into this new venture of roasting coffee. They have learned so much along the way and have created a high quality, organic, product. Brad and Heather work tirelessly, not only continuing to enforce the law at the border, but also raising a family, and developing their new business. I loved learning how Brad and Heather developed their brand, learned techniques on roasting, and show their love for one another, their family, and their community. Go check out Battle Born Coffee Roasters, order yourself a bag of coffee, and check out the great labels personally created by Heather Davis. https://www.battleborn.coffee/ Also, as a special for the listeners, Brad and Heather have provided a 10% off your first order with code GRABACUP when you check out.

Matthew grew up in Southern California in the inner city and it was at a young age when his mom decided to send him to a school outside of the city in which he lived. Matthew enjoyed his early years, understanding that he was different than his classmates. Matthew played multiple sports including basketball, football, wrestling, and was also on the debate team. Most importantly. Matthew was an Equestrian enthusiast. Matthew fell in love with westerns and horses at an early age, riding equestrian, and even rode bulls in the rodeo. Matthew would say above all, He is a Cowboy! Matthew is a born leader. Matthew has shown up in the Law Enforcement world with a background in business and management. Matthew continues to draw on his past experiences to not only perform his daily duties to the fullest, but to reach as many people in the community that he possibly can in order to make a difference. One special project that Matthew has been determined to pursue is the creation of a Mounted Unit within his agency. Matthew understands the value and connection that people have with animals and he truly believes that the correlation will not only make him a better police officer, but it will provide a safe place for people to connect to and with the department’s employees.

    E17 - The Commissioner - An interview with Justin Morgan. A behind the scenes look into the Civilian Police Complaint Commission

    This is Episode 17 of the @lets_grab_a_cup podcast - "The Commissioner" - An interview with Justin Morgan. A behind the scenes look into the Civilian Police Complaint Commission. Justin Morgan was born and raised in Southern California. Justin's mother was a teacher and Justin's entire family history has roots in all forms of politics. Justin attended California State University, Long Beach (where I initially met Justin). Justin majored in education and became a grade school teacher, which he continued for approximately 12 years. Justin attended Pepperdine University and graduated with Honors, and received a certificate of Law in Business from Cornell University. Justin and his family ventured back to Southern California to continue his roots and was appointed to the Citizen Police Complaint Commission (CPCC) by Mayor Robert Garcia. As Law Enforcement Officers, we think about the CPCC in very basic terms. The Commission is set up of various appointed citizens to hear complaints from individuals about misconduct of police officers. The Commission makes judgements on the complaints based on the facts presented and provides their judgement to the department. While the CPCC is determining their judgement, the Police Department is performing an internal investigation simultaneously. Many police officers believe that if a complaint lands on the desk of the CPCC, it will likely be sustained because law enforcement officers have a strong belief that the CPCC is "against them". There is a stigma associated with the idea that people who have not experienced the world of law enforcement are making judgements on citizen complaints. I was very interested to speak to Justin on this topic, because he describes the Commission as a very fair and unbiased entity. This interview provided me so much insight in the behind the scenes of the Commission and ultimately made the idea of a CPCC less "scary" and less "daunting." I believe there is a place for the CPCC and as long as the commission continues to remain unbiased and continues to look at all of the facts while making decisions on various citizen complaints, I believe the officers have nothing to fear from their decisions. If an officer does something that should be addressed, then we should all be comfortable knowing that the commission will address this complaint confidentially and justly. I really appreciate Justin coming on the podcast and I wish him well on all of his future endeavors. This podcast is brought to you by Sturgeon Wellness (Intentionality, Authenticity, Resiliency).
