This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, takes an honest look at something few talk about out loud: missing the chaos (Amazon Affiliate). After years of answering high-stakes calls, many first responders find that calm feels strange—or even unsafe. When your nervous system has been wired to thrive in crisis, silence can be unsettling. We break down why this happens, how it affects life at home, and what you can do to regulate your nervous system so peace doesn't feel like a threat. 1. Why Chaos Feels Normal After Years in the Field The brain learns to crave adrenaline surges from constant exposure to stress. High-alert environments make “calm” feel foreign and even suspicious. 2. The Emotional Whiplash of Returning Home How the sudden drop from adrenaline leaves you restless or irritable. Why family time can feel empty or flat after a chaotic shift. 3. The Hidden Cost of Craving Crisis Always seeking stimulation can damage relationships and lead to burnout. When calm moments feel uncomfortable, it robs you of joy outside the job. 4. Signs Your Nervous System Is Stuck in Overdrive Trouble relaxing or sleeping. Constant multitasking, fidgeting, or picking fights for stimulation. Feeling flat or emotionally numb during peaceful moments. 5. How to Rewire for Peace Without Losing Your Edge Using tactical breathing, grounding exercises, or mindfulness after a shift. Gradually reintroducing calm routines so they feel safe again. Building hobbies and activities that offer healthy stimulation. Talking openly with loved ones about what you're experiencing. Seeking professional support to reset your baseline over time.

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, dives into the complicated reality of loyalty in first responder culture (Amazon Affiliate). Brotherhood, solidarity, and “having each other's back” are cornerstones of the job—but what happens when that bond crosses into blind obedience? We explore how the pressure to remain loyal at all costs can silence ethical concerns, dismiss personal discomfort, and even put entire teams at risk. This conversation is about recognizing the fine line between solidarity and silence—and reclaiming loyalty as something that strengthens integrity, not undermines it. 1. The Double-Edged Sword of Brotherhood Loyalty builds trust, reliability, and connection in dangerous environments. But when “I've got your back” is taken too far, it creates an expectation of compliance—even when actions don't feel right. 2. How Loyalty Can Silence Ethical Concerns Officers may hesitate to call out misconduct because they fear betraying a brother or sister in uniform. Over time, silence normalizes behavior that erodes morale, damages public trust, and harms the profession as a whole. 3. The Personal Cost of Blind Obedience When loyalty trumps personal values, it creates internal conflict and stress. Living with that conflict can lead to burnout, resentment, and a fractured sense of identity. 4. Real-World Consequences of Over-Loyalty Departments or organizations lose credibility when wrongdoing goes unchallenged. Scandals, lawsuits, and broken public trust often stem not from one act—but from a culture of silence that surrounds it. 5. Redefining Loyalty in Healthy Terms True loyalty means protecting each other's well-being—not covering for harmful behavior. Speaking up when something is wrong is a deeper act of loyalty because it safeguards the integrity of the entire team. Creating a culture where feedback and accountability are welcomed keeps brotherhood strong without sacrificing ethics.

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, is a reminder of something many first responders forget: you are more than the badge (Amazon Affiliate), more than the uniform, and more than the role you fill on shift. But what happens when the world—and sometimes even your own family—doesn't see it yet? This is a message of hope and identity reclamation for anyone starting to feel like just a number. Too often, first responders are defined entirely by the job. You're the officer, the firefighter, the medic—and nothing else. That label comes with weight and respect, but it can also come with loneliness and invisibility. When people only see the badge, they forget the person. At home, this can show up as being treated like the enforcer instead of the partner or parent. At work, it can feel like you're only valued for your next shift or statistic. Over time, the pressure of being “just the job” chips away at self-worth. But you are not just a responder—you are a whole human being. And even if others can't see it yet, that truth matters. In this episode, we break down: Why responders often feel invisible outside of the uniform and how identity gets swallowed up by the role. The emotional toll of being “just a badge number”—on marriages, parenting, and personal fulfillment. How to start reclaiming your identity by rediscovering hobbies, friendships, and purpose outside of the job. Practical ways to remind yourself of who you are—from small rituals at home to setting boundaries at work. The importance of patience and communication when teaching others to see you beyond your role.

How do you want to be remembered? What kind of legacy do you want to leave behind? I have been thinking about this a lot lately, especially considering what happened in our country with the assassination of Charlie Kirk. But also, because I lost my dad recently. In addition to that, many great Christian leaders have passed away in recent months like Dr. James Dobson, John MacArthur, Kay Arthur, and Phil Robertson. Heaven has never seemed closer in the last couple months, and I have been reflecting on the end of our lives and how do we finish well. This makes me think of a Bible character, Moses. Some think he did not finish well, but I disagree. I am excited to do a Bible Shoes episode on the podcast again and dive deeper into Moses' life and how I believe he finished well. I reference Lisa Appelo's Instagram account and her words of wisdom on grief. She is a friend who sadly lost her husband and encourages widows. She has lots to share on how public grief can affect private grief. Here is direct link to the post I read in this episode. Lisa started Hope in Grief on her website which I have contributed to in the past years. I definitely recommend checking it out. Also, she has been a guest on my Depth Podcast twice, so I will share links below so you can listen. Depth Podcast Episode 127 with Lisa Appelo. We discussed her book, *Life Can Be Good Again. Depth Podcast Episode 12 where she shares God's faithfulness in her grief. If you missed my introduction of Bible Shoes, I am going to be picking one person in the Bible and I am going to try to put myself in their shoes. I am going to ask myself, what are they thinking? What are they feeling? How does this relate to us in present day? Check out this blog post to explain it!

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, offers space for reflection on a season every responder knows too well—the one where you almost walked away. Whether it was burnout, frustration with leadership, family pressures, or the weight of trauma (Amazon Affiliate), most first responders can point to a time when quitting felt like the only option. But those seasons carry lessons. Sometimes they teach you boundaries. Sometimes they remind you of your purpose. And sometimes they simply show you that talking about “it”—whatever your it is—might be what keeps you here. 1. Naming the Year You Almost Quit Why it's important to identify that season instead of burying it. The power of storytelling in processing your own burnout. 2. Common Breaking Points for First Responders Family strain, missed milestones, and feeling disconnected at home. Frustration with leadership, politics, or lack of support. Emotional exhaustion from cumulative trauma exposure. 3. What That Season Teaches You Boundaries: Learning where you need to draw the line to protect yourself. Resilience: Discovering the strength you didn't know you had. Purpose: Reconnecting with why you chose the job in the first place. 4. The Power of Talking About “It” “It” may be trauma, anger, grief, or resentment. Why silence compounds burnout and how honesty creates connection. The healing that happens when you put words to your experience. 5. Strategies for Moving Forward Without Quitting Seek support before the breaking point—peer groups, mentors, therapy. Redefine success in seasons of burnout: sometimes survival is success. Use reflection to shape healthier choices going forward. Encourage others to share their “almost quit” story to normalize the struggle.

Brad and Tyler discuss the fallout from NXT No Mercy, including what's next for Ricky Saints and Oba Femi. Tyler thinks Lola Vice should've won, Brad has a dream location for the WWE's next international Premium Live Event, and both guys are grateful for Stephanie Vaquer.

RGM MAGAZINE INTERVIEW - INSIDE THE MUSIC INDUSTRY, THIS WEEK WE CATCH UP WITH MARK RADCLIFFE AND PAUL LANGLEY TO DISCUSS THE NEW UNE ALBUM► CHECK OUT UNE

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.

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, takes a close look at how the pressure to perform on the job can unconsciously spill over into your personal life (Amazon Affiliate). Many first responders feel their value is tied to achievement, productivity, or rank—and when that same mindset shows up at home, it can quietly damage relationships. We dig into how this pattern develops, why it backfires, and what you can do to shift from performance mode into presence mode with the people who matter most. 1. The Conditioning of Performance Culture Why law enforcement and first responder work rewards performance over vulnerability. How this mindset becomes ingrained and unconsciously carried into family life. 2. Signs You're Performing Instead of Connecting at Home Constantly trying to “fix” instead of listening. Over-scheduling yourself to prove worth instead of being still. Measuring value in what you do, not who you are. 3. The Emotional Toll on Your Spouse and Kids How loved ones may feel unseen or secondary to your achievements. The resentment that builds when presence is replaced by performance. 4. Why Performance Backfires in Relationships Achievement-driven interactions don't create intimacy. The disconnect between “providing” and truly being available. Why presence—not perfection—is what family members actually crave. 5. Strategies to Shift From Performance to Presence Practice active listening without offering solutions. Create intentional downtime with no agenda. Remind yourself that your worth at home isn't tied to your badge or your productivity. Use rituals (prayer, meal time, walks) to foster connection.

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, explores a common trap in both policing and leadership (Amazon Affiliate): the belief that you can be everything to everyone. While the intention often comes from a good place—wanting to serve, to represent, to protect—the reality is that spreading yourself too thin or trying to cover all sides usually backfires. Using recent events as a real-world example, we look at how the Peace Officers Research Association of California (PORAC) attempted to endorse both Republican mayoral candidate Chad Bianco and Democratic candidate Antonio Villaraigosa. Instead of broadening support, this “cover all bases” approach was met with backlash so intense that PORAC eventually had to turn off its comments. The lesson? Not making a decision is still a decision—and trying to please everyone often means you please no one. The “Everything to Everyone” Mentality in Policing Officers often feel the need to be a protector, counselor, disciplinarian, and community voice all at once. How this leads to overextension, blurred roles, and burnout. The Leadership Parallel: PORAC's Political Endorsements Endorsing both sides was meant to keep the peace but created the opposite effect. Why trying to straddle the fence is often seen as disingenuous by the public and members alike. How This Backfires in Daily Law Enforcement Work Example: an officer trying to be a friend, disciplinarian, and problem-solver in one call. The public often perceives inconsistency or lack of authenticity. Personal toll: resentment, exhaustion, and identity conflict for the officer. The Hidden Costs of Over-Accommodation Loss of trust from those you're trying to serve. Reduced credibility as a leader or officer. Mental health strain from always shifting roles and expectations. Remedies: How to Serve Without Over-Serving Clarity of Role: Know what you are there to do—and what you are not. Boundaries: Give yourself permission not to fill every role in every moment. Authenticity: Stand firm in your decisions, even when not everyone agrees. Communication: Explain your stance clearly instead of trying to appease both sides. Resilience Practices: Build systems (peer support, supervision, personal reflection) to guard against burnout when pressures to “be everything” arise.

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, explores the hidden challenge many first responders face: learning to live in peace after years of running toward chaos. For those who thrive in adrenaline-filled environments, boredom, silence, or calm can actually feel unsafe. We dig into why your nervous system gets wired for chaos—and how to retrain it for lasting peace. Why Chaos Feels Like Home Years of conditioning in high-stakes environments rewires your brain (Amazon Affiliate). Adrenaline becomes addictive, making calm feel like danger. The Downside of Always Being “On” Living in hyper-vigilance damages physical and emotional health. Why restlessness, irritability, and mistrust show up during downtime. The Silent Struggle of Transitioning Off Duty Why silence at home can feel unbearable. How relationships suffer when you unconsciously seek out conflict or stimulation. Recognizing the Signs of Nervous System Overload Trouble sleeping without noise or activity. Needing constant stimulation (TV, noise, busywork). Struggling to sit still or relax without guilt. Steps to Rewire for Peace Tactical breathing and mindfulness to retrain your body's “baseline.” Gradual exposure to stillness—learning to sit in quiet without panic. Physical exercise as a healthy adrenaline release. Creating rituals that signal safety (music, routines, prayer). Seeking professional help to break cycles of nervous system dysregulation.

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, takes a raw look at what you may be passing down to your kids, without even realizing it. First responder stress doesn't just stay at work (Amazon Affiliate). The silence, the discipline, the avoidance, and the constant tension of the job can quietly trickle into your parenting and shape the next generation. We dig into the emotional inheritance that comes from responder culture, exploring how children often absorb unspoken lessons about fear, conflict, and emotional distance. More importantly, we share how to break the cycle—so your kids inherit your strength, not your struggles. How Kids Absorb Stress You Don't Speak About Why silence isn't neutral—it's still communication. The way kids mirror tension even when you think you're hiding it. Discipline vs. Connection in Responder Homes How rigid structure can be misinterpreted as coldness. Balancing rules with empathy so kids feel both safe and understood. The Cost of Avoidance How refusing to talk about emotions teaches kids to bury theirs. Why avoidance feels protective but often leads to disconnection. Signs of Generational Stress Transfer Children showing anxiety, hyper-vigilance, or perfectionism. The unspoken fear of “what could happen” carried into adulthood. Practical Ways to Break the Cycle Talking openly about stress in age-appropriate ways. Modeling vulnerability as strength. Creating family rituals that focus on presence, not performance. Seeking outside support so your family isn't carrying it alone.

Affiliate marketing is far from dead. In fact, it's evolving faster than ever. While many have written it off as an outdated model, the smartest affiliates are quietly cashing in by adapting to shifts in algorithms, AI, and consumer behavior. In this week's podcast, Greg sits down with Niels Zee, affiliate entrepreneur, author, and founder of Afframp.

Are you an overthinker? Do you think about something way longer than anyone else would? I know I do. I sit there and ruminate over things that most people would have let go of after just a couple minutes. This is the struggle I have- maybe you have this same struggle. So I was so excited when I came across this book this summer. It is a brand-new release by Max Lucado called *Tame Your Thoughts: Three Tools to Renew Your Mind and Transform Your Life. After seeing it, I bought this book immediately and read it in one day- it is so good! It is full of some truth and practical advice to help. I am going to share some of my favorite takeaways from his new book as well as from an older book called *Anxious for Nothing by Max Lucado. I highly recommend these books!

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, digs into the mindset of “just making it to retirement (Amazon Affiliate).” For many officers, the countdown becomes a mantra—yet the years between can feel like being held hostage. From financial obligations to fractured relationships, we examine the reality behind retirement obsession and how to reclaim your career and identity before the clock runs out.   Check out Scott Medlin's The 10 Code Mindset.  Pros of the Retirement Countdown Mindset: Clear Goalpost – Provides a sense of direction and something to work toward. Financial Security – Builds hope for stability in the future. Motivation to Stay the Course – Helps push through rough patches. Sense of Pride in Longevity – A badge of honor to reach full retirement. Opportunity to Plan Ahead – Encourages focus on life after the job. Cons of the Retirement Countdown Mindset: Living for the Future Only – Creates disengagement from the present. Resentment Builds – Toward the job, leadership, or system. Strained Relationships – Ex-wives or financial obligations tied to pensions before retirement even starts. Emotional Hostage State – Every shift feels like survival until the clock runs out. Risk of Identity Crisis – When retirement arrives, purpose and structure vanish. Why officers measure time in “years to retirement.” The emotional toll of feeling trapped by the pension. The financial reality—alimony, divorce, and obligations before retirement even begins. Healthy ways to find meaning and fulfillment in the now, not just the future. Preparing emotionally and financially for retirement without letting it dominate your present life.  

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, takes a closer look at the unexpected perks of being a police officer (Amazon Affiliate) when you're off duty. From helping a neighbor in crisis to stepping in at the right moment, we explore how the badge carries influence and responsibility—even when you're not wearing it.   Here's my USCCA referral link that I mentioned in our show today.  Pros of Being an Off-Duty Cop: Immediate Trust in Emergencies – Neighbors and community members turn to you with confidence. Preparedness & Training – Ability to act quickly and provide guidance before official responders arrive. Community Role Model – Sets a tone of service and safety outside of the job. Stronger Neighborhood Bonds – Helping builds trust and relationships with those around you. Personal Fulfillment – Brings pride knowing your skills can directly impact lives beyond the shift. Cons of Being an Off-Duty Cop: Never Fully “Off” – Always being called on can make it hard to relax. High Expectations – Neighbors assume you'll always know what to do, even if it's outside police work. Risk of Liability – Getting involved off duty carries legal and safety risks. Emotional Burnout – Constant readiness can weigh heavily over time. Boundary Issues – Difficult to maintain personal privacy when your role spills into daily life. Why it feels like you're never truly off duty. The pride and purpose that comes with helping those around you. How to manage expectations without becoming the “neighborhood cop.” Navigating the balance between privacy and responsibility. Stories of meaningful off-duty moments that show the good side of wearing the badge.

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, takes a candid look at the hidden mental health battles many first responders fight (Amazon Affiliate) while appearing perfectly fine on the outside. The discipline, structure, and professionalism that make them effective in the field often double as masks—concealing anxiety, depression, trauma, or burnout from colleagues, family, and even themselves. Defining “High-Functioning” Struggles: How success and competence can hide serious internal distress. The difference between coping and truly healing. Why First Responders Mask Symptoms: Cultural pressure to appear unshakable. Fear of stigma, career repercussions, or losing trust. The Role of Routine in Concealment: How structure and discipline can maintain outward stability. Why routines can become a crutch instead of a lifeline. The Cumulative Toll of Silent Struggles: The long-term health risks of untreated anxiety, depression, or trauma. The emotional cost on family relationships and personal well-being. The Danger of Self-Deception: How “I'm fine” becomes a habit, even to oneself. Why high-functioning doesn't mean healthy functioning. Strategies to Recognize and Address the Issue: Normalize Conversations Around Mental Health: Peer leaders and supervisors openly sharing their own experiences. Look for Micro-Signs in Yourself and Others: Changes in sleep, irritability, withdrawal, or overworking. Encourage Early Check-Ins, Not Crisis Interventions: Making mental health maintenance as routine as physical training. Use Trusted, Confidential Resources: Peer support, vetted therapists, or off-the-record consultations. Reframe Help-Seeking as Tactical Strength: Position mental wellness as part of operational readiness. This episode is a reminder that a polished uniform and a strong performance in the field don't always mean someone is okay—and that the bravest thing a responder can do might be to take off the mask.  

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, explores the critical gap between the training ground and the reality of the field (Amazon Affiliate). While simulations sharpen technical skills, they rarely prepare first responders for the emotional aftermath of a traumatic call. We unpack why this disconnect exists, the hidden cost of unaddressed emotional impact, and how to better equip responders for both the tactical and mental sides of the job. The Strengths of Simulation Training: Why repetitive skill practice builds confidence and speed. How scenario-based drills mimic high-pressure decision-making. Where Simulations Fall Short: The emotional detachment of training compared to real-world trauma. Why stress inoculation doesn't always translate to emotional resilience. The Shock of First-Time Exposure: How sensory details, grief, and chaos hit harder in the field. Why early traumatic experiences can shape long-term coping patterns. Unspoken Cultural Barriers: The expectation to “shake it off” after a difficult call. Why admitting emotional struggle is still stigmatized in many departments. The Long-Term Impact of Ignored Fallout: How cumulative stress and unresolved trauma build toward burnout or PTSD. The ripple effect on relationships, decision-making, and mental health. Strategies to Bridge the Gap: Integrate Emotional Debriefs into Training: Include discussions on emotional response alongside skill critique. Normalize Mental Rehearsal for Trauma: Practice emotional grounding and self-talk techniques before the real thing. Pair Training with Peer Support Exposure: Introduce recruits to safe spaces for sharing and processing. Leadership Modeling Vulnerability: Supervisors openly discussing their own emotional fallout experiences. Ongoing Mental Resilience Training: Treat emotional readiness like physical skills—requiring regular refreshers. This episode challenges the idea that technical proficiency alone equals readiness, reminding us that true preparedness includes the mental tools to face what happens after the sirens fade.

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, takes a hard look at the role alcohol still plays (Amazon Affiliate) in first responder culture. For generations, the badge and the bottle have been intertwined—used to unwind, to bond, and, for some, to bury the weight of the job. We explore why alcohol remains an unspoken coping mechanism, how it impacts personal and professional lives, and what it takes to break free from cycles of silent self-medication. The Cultural Legacy of Alcohol in Service: Why drinking has long been normalized in first responder circles. The “work hard, play hard” mentality and how it perpetuates risky habits. The Fine Line Between Social and Self-Medication: How occasional drinks can shift into dependency without realizing it. The difference between relaxation and numbing out. Signs Alcohol Is Becoming a Problem: Red flags that often go unnoticed—or are brushed off—in responder culture. How high-functioning dependency hides in plain sight. The Impact on Relationships and Performance: Why substance reliance affects emotional regulation, decision-making, and intimacy. How alcohol-related issues can put careers and families at risk. The Role of Peer Influence and Stigma: How fear of judgment or isolation keeps people from seeking help. The unspoken pressure to join in to “fit in.” Strategies to Break the Cycle: Audit Your Habits: Track how often and why you're drinking to gain clarity on patterns. Replace Rituals, Not Just the Drink: Find healthier ways to decompress and bond that still meet the same needs. Seek Support Early: Connect with confidential peer support programs or counseling before it becomes a crisis. Shift the Culture Through Leadership: Leaders setting examples by promoting sober or low-alcohol events. Prioritize Emotional Tools Over Liquid Ones: Build coping skills that can handle stress without relying on alcohol. In this episode, we challenge the silence around alcohol in first responder life—and offer practical steps to protect your health, relationships, and career.

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, sheds light on the hidden sacrifices that first responder families (Amazon Affiliate) make every single day. While spouses and children never signed up for the job, they still feel the ripple effects of shift work, emotional strain, and the unpredictability that comes with life in service. We unpack the emotional labor your loved ones carry—often silently—and how to acknowledge, support, and protect them without losing yourself to the demands of the badge. Understanding Secondary Service: How spouses and kids are impacted by missed holidays, unpredictable schedules, and constant worry. The way this secondary service can shape identity and family dynamics. The Emotional Toll on Loved Ones: Recognizing signs of stress, anxiety, or resentment in your spouse and children. Why unspoken worries can be just as heavy as the dangers of the job itself. Invisible Shifts at Home: How partners often shoulder the household and parenting duties alone during your shifts. The mental exhaustion of “covering” for an absent parent or spouse. The Role of Unpredictability: How canceled plans, late calls, and changing shifts affect trust and emotional connection. Why communication about unpredictability matters more than you think. The Silent Strength of Support Systems: How family members adapt to crisis without formal training. The toll of always being “on call” emotionally, even when you're not home. Strategies to Help Protect Your Family's Peace: Intentional Communication: Create a safe space for your spouse and kids to express frustrations without fear of judgment. Scheduled Family Time: Make non-negotiable dates on the calendar that aren't easily sacrificed to work. Acknowledgement and Gratitude: Verbally recognize the sacrifices your loved ones make—and do it often. Healthy Decompression Habits: Process your job stress before walking through the front door to avoid emotional spillover. Shared Resources and Support: Connect your family with counseling, peer support groups, or other first responder families for understanding and solidarity. Your family may not wear the uniform, but they carry its weight alongside you. In this episode, you'll learn how to ensure their service doesn't come at the expense of their well-being—or yours.

On the job, strength is measured in grit, control, and composure under pressure. But behind the badge (Amazon Affiliate), there's another kind of strength that's often overlooked: emotional intelligence. Why does it still feel “soft” or unsafe to express empathy, vulnerability, or self-awareness on the job? In this episode, Ashlie and Clint unpack the silent tension between tactical competence and emotional growth—revealing why the two aren't opposites at all, but deeply intertwined forms of resilience.

Happy Satiated Saturday! I find it fascinating to explore the layers and layers of connections between trauma and food behaviors. Trauma alters the way you experience bodily sensations. A racing heart can feel like panic rather than excitement. An empty stomach might trigger fear rather than curiosity about food. Over time, the body learns to suppress or disconnect from these cues in an attempt to stay safe. ​Body detachment provided you​ with short term safety, but affected your ability to know how you feel, to understand if you're hungry or full, or to know what you need and when.​ This lowered your interoception or ability to sense and interpret your internal signals in your body. In this week's episode, I chat about: Interoceptive confusionHow low interoception effects food behaviorsTrauma and interoception connectionInteroception practices you can start todayYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/how-trauma-alters-your-sense-of-self-and-eating-habitsI also provide some updates at the end of this episode so be sure to listen to the end! With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxNewsletter Signup: https://www.stephaniemara.com/subscribeReclaim Your Body Image Workshop: https://satiated.mykajabi.com/offers/EkFBjX2QMove Through Binge Urges Workshop: https://satiated.mykajabi.com/offers/nRo7qyFd/checkoutSomatic Eating® Program Waitlist: https://www.somaticeating.com/Free Connect Call to work 1:1: https://www.stephaniemara.com/lets-chatSupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, takes a raw look at one of the most uncomfortable truths in first responder life: Sometimes, you just don't like your partner (Amazon Affiliate) but you still have to do the job.

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, explores a powerful question: What happens when your profession becomes your only source of meaning (Amazon Affiliate)? When the badge replaces your beliefs, rituals, and identity—what gets lost? For many first responders, the job isn't just what they do—it's who they are. The structure, the mission, the adrenaline, and the sense of service can begin to mirror the same grounding that faith, spirituality, or deep inner purpose once provided. But what happens when that job becomes your religion? In this episode, we examine how devotion to service can unintentionally create a spiritual void—leaving little room for faith, family, or a connection to something greater than yourself. You'll discover how this phenomenon subtly shows up, why it's common in first responder culture, and what you can do to reclaim your spiritual grounding—without abandoning your calling.

Not all competition is healthy—especially when it's happening behind the badge. In this episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton pull back the curtain on the unspoken rivalries, silent resentment (Amazon Affiliate), and morale issues that creep into first responder culture when rank becomes personal. If you've ever felt tension with teammates over promotions, recognition, or seniority, this one's for you.

Laughter is a survival skill in this job (Amazon Affiliate) but sometimes, it's also a shield. In this episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton explore the fine line between coping and covering up, showing how sarcasm, dark humor, and constant banter can signal unprocessed pain beneath the surface.
