We Like Shooting Episode 640 This episode of We Like Shooting is brought to you by: Midwest Industries, Die Free Co., Medical Gear Outfitters, Mitchell Defense, Rost Martin, and Swampfox Optics   Welcome to the We Like Shooting Show, episode 640! Our cast tonight is Jeremy Pozderac, Savage1r, Jon Patton, and me Shawn Herrin, welcome to the show!   - Gear Chat Nick - KRG Bravo Unplugged KRG Bravo Shawn - GLOCK Unveils Ergonomically Enhanced Generation 6 Models ## Key Points Summary Intro This summary captures the main takeaways from the Glock Gen 6 launch coverage featuring John from the Warrior Poet Society. The discussion centers on design changes, practical improvements, and shooting impressions, with notes on market timing and pricing. Sponsorships were not part of the core content. Center Key design changes and their practical impact - Grip and texture: The new texture sits between Gen 4 and RTF2; two backstraps including a palm swell are provided. The texture extends higher on both sides for a more secure hold, especially in hot conditions. - Ergonomics: Deeper trigger guard undercut reduces the “Glock knuckle” issue; the grip surface is larger, improving surface area for those with bigger hands; the grip shape swells in the midsection for a more natural wrap. - Controls: Deeper slide serrations, especially on top, enhance manipulation from either end of the slide. The ambidextrous slide release remains, and the pistol uses a single recoil spring (as in earlier generations) while retaining some material from the B-series. - Magwell and contour: The magwell is more flared; the overall contour resembles a topographic map, broadening the hand placement area and increasing leverage for a stronger grip. - Gas pedals and holster compatibility: Gas pedals are built into the frame on both sides with material reduced to protect compatibility with Gen 5 holsters; the goal is a functional improvement without forcing new holsters. - Optics and plates: The plate system is not MOS; it uses a polymer insert that sits lower on the slide and acts like a crush washer under tension. Footprints include Delta Point and RMR; optic-ready configuration remains, with some models rumored to feature polymer sights. - Sights and optics readiness: The factory setup is optics-ready, with some early photos showing polymer sight options. - Barrel and reliability: The Marksman barrel remains, but the extractor housing has been redesigned to be removable for easier maintenance and to reduce installation errors. - Handling and feel: The grip bite is strong but not overly tacky, enabling fast, controlled manipulations without the gun sticking to the hand. Models, availability, and pricing - US launch models: Gen 617 (with Glock 47 form factor), 19-length slide paired to a full-size grip (G45-like); overseas, Glock 49 appears as a variant. - Optics-ready configuration: All examples are MOS-ready or compatible, with plates included for common footprints. - Pricing and timing: MSRP is anticipated around $750; production units were slated to begin arriving in January, with possible earlier availability as information evolves. - Accessories and maintenance: An updated extractor housing system is highlighted as simplifying field maintenance and reducing failure risks due to improper screw length. User experience and feedback - Hand feel: The curved, swollen midsection improves leverage and comfort; the grip texture provides secure grip without excessive tackiness, avoiding slip during rapid manipulation. - Shooting impressions: A large, controlled sampling (nine pistols and thousands of rounds) yielded consistent ejection and reliable cycling during demonstrations; full independent testing will further validate reliability. - Community notes: Gen 5 users worried about slide-lock issues may benefit from deeper cuts and reinforced stops; modular grip options were not part of the initial rollout, though patent activity suggests ongoing development. Outro Takeaway: Gen 6 Glock delivers meaningful ergonomic and grip improvements, while maintaining optics readiness and reliability expectations. The US market rollout is aimed for January with a target MSRP near $750; overseas options include Glock 49. Next steps include comprehensive independent testing, longer-term reliability data, and broader real-world reviews. Stay tuned for updates, and consider price-alert subscriptions for stock and accessory availability.

WLS is Lifestyle Hoover's Legal Rollercoaster ## Key Points Summary,**Intro**,This summary distills the latest developments surrounding Matt Hoover, the CRS Firearms creator, after a lengthy legal battle tied to the so-called “auto key card.” The focus is on the factual timeline, legal questions, and current status as Hoover emerges from federal prison into a halfway house. The material below omits sponsorship references and concentrates on the core events and implications for Hoover, his case, and ongoing appeals., ,**Centerpiece Facts & Timeline**,,- **Subject and backdrop**: Matt Hoover, known for the CRS Firearms YouTube channel, was linked to advertisements for the auto key card—a novelty item featuring a lightning-link-like etching intended to imply automatic-fire capability. The item did not function as advertised, and there is no evidence Hoover owned, sold, or manufactured machine guns or auto key cards.,- **Arrest and charge**: Despite the nonfunctional etching and absence of direct ownership or manufacturing activity, Hoover was arrested and charged with trafficking machine guns. The case connected him to Christopher Justin Irvin, the creator of the auto key card.,- **Sentencing dynamics**: The pre-sentencing report highlighted Hoover's clean criminal record and his role as the family's primary breadwinner, presenting a favorable background for leniency. Yet, prosecutors sought the maximum sentence, arguing aggressive measures despite the limited direct involvement in weapon manufacture or sales.,- **Contested assertions**: The government asserted extreme accusations, including a claim that Hoover married to prevent her testimony, despite Hoover and his wife sharing multiple children. These assertions drew skepticism and counter-arguments during proceedings and appellate discussions.,- **Gag order controversy**: The government attempted to impose gag orders on journalists covering the case. Those efforts were challenged and ultimately overturned, favoring press freedom and coverage of the proceedings.,- **Appeals process**: Hoover and Irvin both appealed their convictions to the Eleventh Circuit. The Eleventh Circuit heard the appeal in September, but no published decision had been issued at the time of reporting. The appellate discussion centers on evidentiary standards, the government's interpretation of the auto key card's legal status, and potential misapplications of trafficking statutes given the novelty item's nonfunctional nature.,- **Current status**: Hoover has been released from federal prison into a halfway house to serve the remainder of his sentence, effectively transitioning from confinement to supervised community-based placement. He is not at home, but he is no longer in a traditional prison setting. The case remains active on appeal, with the circuit court's decision pending.,- **Context and implications**: The broader implications touch on how prosecutors frame “trafficking” related to nonfunctional or novelty items, the evidentiary boundaries for associating creators with distributors, and the practical impact on families and communities tied to defendants in high-profile cases.,- **Public calls to action**: Viewers and supporters are encouraged to engage with ongoing legal debates, follow the Eleventh Circuit decision when released, and participate in related community discussions.

Awakening requires presence, shadow alchemy, and soul-level re-patterning. Jenna Lee maps a practical path from trauma to transformation: regulate the nervous system, feel what's been repressed, and become “mirror consciousness” for yourself and others. She distinguishes Akashic Records from Akashic Enlightenment — a higher-dimensional “Book of Truth” aimed at ascension work, not biography. Through breath, sensory grounding, forgiveness (especially of self), and embodied action, dormant gifts return: intuition, light language, and co-creative manifestation from neutrality. Her live transmission closes with a guided, chakra-by-chakra attunement to restore confidence, creativity, safety, and connection to Source.

Autonomy-Supportive Parenting with Dr. Emily Edlynn, PhD In this episode of the Helping Families Be Happy Podcast, host Christopher Robbins interviews Dr. Emily Edlynn, a licensed clinical psychologist and author of "Autonomy-Supportive Parenting." Dr. Edlynn explains how autonomy-supportive parenting, based on self-determination theory, nurtures three fundamental human needs: autonomy, competence, and relatedness. She discusses how modern parenting culture's intensive approach often leads to controlling behaviors that undermine children's development, and provides practical strategies for parents to foster independence while reducing parental burnout. The conversation covers real- world applications of these principles, including how to help children solve their own problems and develop financial independence. Episode Highlights 00:00:10: Host Christopher Robbins introduces the podcast and guest Dr. Emily Edlynn, highlighting her credentials as a licensed clinical psychologist and author. 00:02:06: Light-hearted exchange about parenting experience with Christopher mentioning he's a father of nine children. 00:02:50: Dr. Edlynn defines autonomy-supportive parenting as a science-based approach that nurtures three fundamental human needs: autonomy, competence, and relatedness. 00:04:07: Discussion of the three core needs, with Christopher seeking clarification on each component. 00:04:40: Dr. Edlynn explains relatedness as the foundational need involving belonging, connection, and feeling understood and accepted. 00:05:14: Connection made to Daniel Pink's book "Drive" and its relationship to motivation theory. 00:06:17: Christopher acknowledges the challenges of parenting, describing it as sometimes being "a grind." 00:06:28: Dr. Edlynn identifies two primary barriers: overwhelming parental stress (declared a public health crisis) and intensive parenting culture. 00:08:10: Discussion of how control is the antithesis of autonomy-supportive parenting. 00:08:33: Dr. Edlynn explains how parents often do too much for their children, preventing skill development and confidence building. 00:09:36: Christopher relates the advice to leadership principles applicable beyond parenting. 00:10:25: Christopher shares his parenting approach of encouraging children to solve problems independently. 00:10:56: Dr. Edlynn validates Christopher's approach based on its effectiveness. 00:11:34: Humorous exchange about background music making parental advice more appealing. 00:11:48: Christopher asks for key autonomy supportive strategies to implement immediately. 00:11:56: Dr. Edlynn provides specific strategies including expecting more independence and expressing trust in children. 00:13:28: Application of strategies to a real scenario involving a child who needs to become more financially self-reliant. 00:13:47: Dr. Edlynn walks through the process of addressing the financial independence issue collaboratively. 00:15:00: Christopher acknowledges learning new parenting approaches after 33 years of experience. 00:15:38: Discussion of how autonomy supportive parenting relates to good leadership principles. 00:16:19: Exploration of short-term and long-term benefits of autonomy-supportive parenting. 00:16:35: Dr. Edlynn outlines benefits including reduced stress for parents and increased confidence for children. 00:17:25: Christopher reflects on accepting that children will grow up to be themselves, not replicas of their parents. 00:17:54: Dr. Edlynn emphasizes the importance of seeing children for who they truly are. 00:18:01: Acknowledgment that parenting is a marathon, not a sprint. 00:18:15: Important clarification that parents don't need to be autonomy supportive every moment to be effective. 00:19:12: Dr. Edlynn shares her contact information and online presence. 00:19:24: Closing remarks and podcast subscription information. Key Takeaways Autonomy supportive parenting focuses on nurturing three fundamental needs: autonomy, competence, and relatedness. Modern intensive parenting culture often leads to controlling behaviors that undermine children's development. Parents should ask children "What are you thinking?" before offering solutions to encourage problem- solving skills. Expecting more independent behaviors from children reduces parental stress while building children's confidence. Approach children's mistakes with curiosity rather than judgment to maintain connection and facilitate learning. Scaffolding approach works best - implementing changes step by step rather than expecting immediate complete independence. Autonomy-supportive parenting leads to higher self-esteem, better academic achievement, and stronger social relationships in children. Parents don't need to be perfect - creating a general environment of autonomy support is what matters most. Quotable Moments "All of us, regardless of our age or where we live in the world, we thrive when we have these three needs met." "We feel like this anxiety that we have to curate this perfect life for our kids. And so what we end up doing is we do too much for our kids as a way to love them." "I want you to pretend that there's no one here to solve this problem and your life depends on solving this problem. And I bet you can solve it." "We just undermine or underestimate our children. We underestimate what they have to offer and they'll feel that over time." "One of the best things we can do is let go of our image of them and really see them for who they are." "Parenting is not a hundred yard dash. It's a really long ultra marathon." "You do not have to be autonomy supportive every minute of every day to be an autonomy-supportive parent."

In this episode of One in Ten, host Teresa Huizar talks with Dr. Matt Kafafian from George Washington University about his research on how the COVID-19 pandemic has reshaped the nature of the characteristics of exploited youth served by a Children's Advocacy Center. Dr. Kafafian discusses significant findings from studies examining post-pandemic changes in the identification and referral of commercially sexually exploited children and youth. They explore how shifts to online environments and evolving police and social service practices have impacted the demographics and types of exploitation cases being reported. Key points include the new challenges facing child abuse professionals, changes in risk factors, and the implications for screening tools designed to identify vulnerable youth. Dr. Kafafian also discusses emerging trends related to gender differences and mental health issues among exploited youth, highlighting the need for updated tools and approaches in the field.  Time Stamps  Time Topic 00:00 Introduction and Episode Overview 00:17 Guest Introduction: Dr. Matt Kavian 00:48 Impact of the Pandemic on Youth Exploitation 04:29 Pre-Pandemic Vulnerabilities and Risk Factors 06:53 Changes in Youth Exploitation During the Pandemic 08:39 Study Findings and Hypotheses 24:20 Implications for Child Abuse Professionals 26:35 Future Research Directions 29:17 Acknowledgments and Conclusion ResourcesChanging Profiles of Youth Referred for Commercial Sexual Exploitation before and since the Onset of COVID-19 in the United States - Matthew Kafafian, Ieke de Vries, Amy Farrell, Christen Asiedu, Elizabeth Bouchard, 2025Support the showDid you like this episode?

In our fast-paced society, we're trapped in an endless cycle of tasks, worries, and responsibilities that keep our minds in perpetual fight-or-flight mode. Our brains are naturally designed to scan for danger - a survival mechanism that once protected us from real threats but now registers everything from difficult emails to traffic jams as danger, creating constant stress and anxiety. Medical research reveals that gratitude isn't just a pleasant sentiment but actual therapeutic medicine for our minds and bodies. Studies show that practicing gratitude enhances emotional regulation, builds stress resilience, improves social connections, boosts immunity, reduces chronic pain, and improves sleep quality. It's remarkable that when God commands us over 200 times in Scripture to be grateful, He's not just seeking what He deserves but giving us instructions for optimal functioning since He designed our bodies and minds. The danger comes when we forget God's goodness and begin worshiping created things instead of the Creator - whether through workaholism, materialism, or self-reliance. These become hard taskmasters that are never satisfied and ultimately harmful to our wellbeing. The solution lies in the four A's of gratitude: Attention (deliberately focusing on daily blessings), Acknowledgment (recognizing that blessings come from God and others), Appreciation (truly feeling grateful rather than just thinking about it), and Action (expressing gratitude relationally through prayer, worship, or service). When we practice these steps daily, we break free from life's exhausting race and find genuine peace grounded in the reality of God's faithfulness.

Summary As part of our ongoing work to study how to best frame EA, we experimentally tested different phrases and sentences that CEA were considering using on effectivealtruism.org. Doing Good Better taglines We observed a consistent pattern where taglines that included the phrase ‘do[ing] good better' received less support from respondents and inspired less interest in learning about EA. We replicated these results in a second experiment, where we confirmed that taglines referring to “do[ing] good better” performed less well than those referring to “do[ing] the most good”. Nouns and sentences Nouns: The effect of using different nouns to refer to EA was small, but referring to EA as a ‘philosophy' or ‘movement' inspired the most curiosity compared to options including ‘project' and ‘research field'. Sentences: “Find the most effective ways to do good with your time, money, and career” and “Effective altruism asks the question of how we [...] ---Outline:(00:12) Summary(01:23) Method(02:18) Taglines (Study 1)(03:40) Doing Good Better replication (Study 2)(05:23) Sentences (Study 1)(06:45) Nouns (Study 1)(07:41) Effectiveness focus(07:55) Conclusion(08:56) Acknowledgments --- First published: October 27th, 2025 Source: https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/Y6zMpdwkkAQ8rF56w/framing-ea-doing-good-better-did-worse --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO. ---Images from the article:Apple Podcasts and Spotify do not show images in the episode description.

Episode Summary In this episode of the Canadian Immigration Podcast, hosts Mark Holthe and Alicia Backman-Beharry shine a light on one of the most overlooked pathways to staying in Canada: the open work permit for spouses and dependent children of permanent residence sponsorship applicants. They clarify who qualifies, how the process differs for in-Canada vs. Family Class applications, and how to avoid costly mistakes. With processing delays, stricter rules, and fewer temporary pathways, this episode is essential for couples navigating the PR journey. Key Topics Discussed Who's Eligible: Only spouses and dependent children included in a PR sponsorship (not PGWP holders or student spouses). Inland vs. Outland Sponsorship: Family Class applicants can now apply for open work permits too—without losing the right to appeal or travel. Processing Times & AOR: You generally need an Acknowledgment of Receipt (AOR) to apply—but there's a two-week grace rule if your status is expiring. How to Apply Properly: Must apply online through IRCC's portal with correct job codes and supporting documents—no flagpoling or border apps allowed. Out-of-Status Pathway: A slower paper-based route exists for applicants with no valid status, but only after getting approval in principle. Key Takeaways A valid PR sponsorship with AOR unlocks the open work permit. Don't wait—timing and document accuracy are critical. Even Family Class sponsors in Canada may qualify. Seek legal help to avoid costly delays or misrepresentation. Quotes from the Episode Mark Holthe:“If you don't follow the instructions, the processing times are so long that if something goes wrong, you're probably landing in a really tough spot.” Alicia Backman-Beharry:“You only have a two-week window. This is why I wanted to bring attention to this category—it can make a huge difference in people's lives.” Links and Resources Watch this episode on YouTube Canadian Immigration Podcast Book a consult Enroll in the Express Entry Accelerator and Masterclass Subscribe for MoreStay up-to-date with the latest in Canadian immigration by subscribing to the Canadian Immigration Podcast on iTunes, Spotify, or YouTube.

What if the stress, chaos, and self-sabotage you keep bumping into are exactly what a hidden part of you wants?  In this solo episode, I explore the powerful concept from the book, “Existential Kink,” that “having is a form of wanting” and reveal how your mind can secretly crave the very patterns that hold you back.  Through a raw personal story and a three-step framework, you'll learn how to uncover hidden programs that create stress and sabotage in your golf game, business, and life, so you can finally break free and play with calm, confidence, and clarity. In this episode, you'll learn: What “having is a form of wanting” means for your golf game and life How early programming creates today's patterns of chaos, fear, and urgency A three-step method (Acknowledge, Accept, Act) to shift stubborn habits How curiosity + breath turn discomfort into data you can use Why identity fear keeps you “almost there” (breaking 80, scaling revenue) A 15-minute journal exercise to map stressors and rewrite beliefs If you've been “almost” breaking 80, “almost” scaling the business, or “almost” following up with hot leads, this will help you see why—and how to finally play free.  Get your pencils ready and start listening.  P.S.

Identity fear (“Who will I be if I break 80?”) often blocks the final 5%. Presence + breath are the fastest way to access and soften hidden programs. Acceptance is not approval—it's the on-ramp to real change. Curiosity beats judgment; treat tension in the body as useful feedback. Write the new rule: swap “almost” stories for precise, process-driven scripts. Fitness and daily reps (breath, journaling, hypnosis) cement the new identity. Key Quotes: “Having is a form of wanting—your patterns persist because some part of you benefits.” “You can't change code you refuse to read: acknowledge, accept, then act.” “Curiosity turns discomfort into data.” “Identity fear keeps golfers married to the ‘almost broke 80' story.” “Acceptance isn't surrender; it's traction.” “Breathe where it hurts—presence is the scalpel that removes old programs.” “If you want different results, you must believe different—and then do different.” Time Stamps: 00:00: The Desire Behind Self-Sabotage 02:45: Reflections on Personal Challenges 05:29: The Boxing Match Experience 11:11: Understanding Patterns of Chaos 16:44: The Subconscious Code of Our Lives 22:11: Acknowledgment and Acceptance for Change

When we have physical pain, it's difficult not to get frightened of doctors, or resentful of life itself or the body.  When we're not acknowledged, or we believe someone's blaming us for our behavior, we suffer.  Who are we without our stories, and also not falling into passivity or despair? Join a live self-inquiry session inspired by The Work of Byron Katie. We explore how uninvestigated “stories” create suffering—especially around doctors and bad news, physical pain & migraines, being judged or rejected, and needing others to be happy. Through the 4 Questions (“Is it true?” etc.) and gentle turnarounds, participants notice how fear-thoughts like “I don't want this,” “Something's wrong,” “They're rejecting me,” and “I need my partner to be happy” amplify stress—and how clarity returns when we question them. What you'll see: Fear of doctors and “they might find something wrong” “I don't want this pain” (migraines, resistance, fight mode) Courtroom moment: “We didn't cause this” and the sting of not being acknowledged People-pleasing, being “the good one,” and the fear of being seen as “bad” Turnarounds that soften shame, panic, and urgency—and restore compassion If you're curious about self-inquiry, anxiety relief, or how to meet pain and judgment without collapse, this session offers practical, real-world examples. 00:00 – Welcome & setup: noticing a stressful “story” 04:30 – Fear of doctors: “They may find something wrong” 12:40 – “I don't want this” (physical pain & migraine resistance) 22:10 – Courtroom story: “Acknowledge we didn't cause this” 33:20 – Rejection fear: “They don't accept me when I'm emotional” 43:05 – How we react when we believe it (fight, hide, obsess) 54:00 – Who would I be without the thought? 1:03:00 – Turnarounds: to self, other, and opposites 1:14:30 – Pain as messenger; being your own compassionate caregiver 1:22:00 – Closing reflections & next steps Grace Bell, facilitator of The Work, assists people to identify and question their stressful ways of looking at life.  She offers Year of Inquiry, a vibrant membership community of inquirers Sept-June each year. Learn more about Year of Inquiry at https://workwithgrace.com/year-of-inquiry Grace also has a special love for those suffering from eating issues including disordered eating (disordered thinking) of all kinds--having suffered from this behavior and thought/feeling process herself and finding an unshakable peace within around eating, food, health and behaviors with eating.  Grace works with all kinds of compulsions, habits and addictions as they are all the same thing: a pull to some behavior, substance or activity in order to help us with our stressful feelings and thoughts. As Byron Katie offers us (founder of The Work); when we believe what we think, it creates unnecessary suffering. When we question what we think, we feel lighter and less serious about what is. We even begin to laugh. We notice who we really are is peaceful already, a human being living life as best we can--learning, growing, loving.  In the public sessions on this youtube channel, we have all-group inquiry sessions called First Friday Inquiry, we have interviews with practitioners of The Work, we have Eating Peace videos (on the eating peace playlist) and we have individual sessions in The Work by courageous people willing to be recorded for Peace Talk podcast and this channel. Thanks to everyone involved in what is shared here on this channel, as it is great service to others in the world who find their way here and who are curious about life without "believing" thought all the time.   In all-group sessions and solo sessions, we begin with a judgment...and move into the four questions and turnarounds. Willingness to be real and honest with your thinking is the first powerful step in The Work.  No one ever has to share when attending Friday Inquiry, and thank you when you do.   For the Work With Grace programs and more information, and to get on the Grace Notes mailing list for updates and sharing of all kinds around The Work, please visit www.workwithgrace.com To receive notice of Eating Peace programs, videos and vlog posts, visit www.workwithgrace.com/eating-peace and join the mailing list.

In this episode of The Modern Man Podcast, host Ted Phaeton speaks with Dr. Ross Marchegiani, a functional wellness expert and chiropractic physician, about the importance of men's health, hormone optimization, and the need for emotional support among men. They discuss common health issues faced by men, the significance of proactive health checks, and the signs of hormonal imbalance. Dr. Marchegiani emphasizes the need for a holistic approach to health, addressing not just testosterone but also other hormones and lifestyle factors. The conversation highlights the importance of acknowledging and uplifting one another as men, and the benefits of optimizing health for better performance in all areas of life.   Takeaways Men often neglect their health and need to prioritize it. Acknowledgment among men can have a profound impact. Health encompasses physical, emotional, chemical, and spiritual aspects. Proactive health checks are essential, especially for hormones. Signs of hormonal imbalance include fatigue, weight gain, and low libido. Testosterone is just one piece of the hormonal puzzle. Lifestyle changes are crucial for optimal health. Stress management is vital for hormonal balance. Avoid endocrine disruptors like alcohol and processed foods. Seek help from knowledgeable practitioners for holistic health.

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, dives into one of the heaviest but most necessary conversations in law enforcement culture: what happens when you lose a fellow officer to suicide (Amazon Affiliate). It's a grief that doesn't fit neatly into words—an invisible wound compounded by guilt, anger, silence, and questions that may never have answers.   Check out the CDC study referenced here: Effects of Social and Occupational Stress, and Physical Strain on Suicidal Ideation Among Law Enforcement Officers We explore the raw emotional aftermath of suicide loss in the first responder community, what survivors often struggle with the most, and how to move forward without minimizing the pain. 1. The Unique Pain of Suicide Loss in Law Enforcement Why the shock hits differently when it's one of your own. How the sense of duty and family magnifies the grief. 2. Guilt and “What Ifs” That Haunt Survivors Common thoughts like, “Could I have seen the signs?” Why guilt is natural but rarely justified. 3. The Silence and Stigma Surrounding Suicide How cultural barriers keep people from openly mourning. The risk of unspoken pain turning into more unprocessed trauma. 4. The Ripple Effect on the Department and Family How trust, morale, and camaraderie are shaken. The dual weight of personal grief and professional responsibility. 5. What Survivors Need Most After a Suicide Loss Permission to grieve without judgment. Acknowledgment that the officer's life had value beyond their final act. Safe spaces to talk about pain without shame. Remedies & Pathways to Healing: Open Conversations: Normalize speaking about suicide without fear of stigma. Peer Support Programs: Leaning into peer-led groups helps survivors feel less alone. Professional Counseling: Specialized trauma and grief counseling tailored for first responders. Memorialization with Balance: Honoring the life lived while still acknowledging the reality of suicide. Building Protective Culture: Focusing on prevention through awareness, training, and ongoing support.
