Send us a textThe sacred walls of the National Law Enforcement Memorial bear 24,067 names—each representing an officer who made the ultimate sacrifice. Behind this powerful tribute stands an organization dedicated to ensuring these heroes are never forgotten.We're joined by Bill Alexander, CEO of the National Law Enforcement Memorial Fund, who brings over 30 years of law enforcement experience and a profound personal connection to the memorial. "We lost 16 of my peers from the Prince George's County Police Department," Bill shares, "all of whom have their names inscribed on the very sacred memorial which all of us in the profession hold so dear." Alongside him is Aaron Slater, board member and owner of Relentless Defender, whose passion for honoring fallen officers shines through in every word.The conversation takes us deep into the organization's three pillars: the memorial that honors the fallen, the museum that tells American law enforcement's honorable story, and officer safety initiatives working toward "Destination Zero"—a future with no more names added to the wall. From the heart-stopping candlelight vigil during Police Week to the interactive museum exhibits that put visitors in officers' shoes, we explore how these experiences transform understanding and build bridges between law enforcement and the communities they serve.What struck me most was learning how the memorial serves as sacred ground for healing. "There is something more than cathartic about seeing that name engraved," Bill explains. "It is absolutely part of the healing process." This isn't just about remembrance—it's about acknowledging sacrifice, processing grief, and celebrating service in ways that change both individuals and our collective understanding of what it means to wear the badge.Whether you've experienced loss in the line of duty or simply want to understand the true story of American law enforcement, this conversation offers powerful insights into an organization ensuring that those who gave everything are honored for generations to come.

An uplifting story about the power of art, finding your voice, and telling your story even when you're out of step with your peers from the #1 bestselling creators of Sofia Valdez, Future Prez and Ada Twist, Scientist! Aaron Slater loves listening to stories and dreams of one day writing them himself.

When his teacher asks each child in the class to write a story, Aaron can't get a single word down.

In episode 17 Relentless Leadership Part 1, we traveled back down to Relentless Defender HQ in Houston, Texas to speak with Owner and CEO, Aaron Slater, on leadership. In the world we live in we are seeing leadership fail all across our country. For so long we have thought as leadership as the people above us. Slater has an awesome take on how leadership starts from the front line rather than the upper echelon. Imagine a generation of selfless leaders that took it upon themselves to lead from every assignment instead of waiting to lead once rank was applied. Now more than ever we need this message in our county. This was such an interesting episode we had to make it a two-part series. We will be traveling back down there soon to finish this awesome conversation on leadership.   For more information on Relentless Defender, check out their website at https://relentlessdefender.com   The music in today's episode is brought to you by Nothing More.
