Send us a textWhat happens when a police officer and a counselor not only share their professional expertise but also their marriage journey? In this candid, powerful conversation, Ashley and Dustin Wright bring a unique dual perspective to the challenges facing first responder marriages.Marriage requires resilience for everyone, but for those in law enforcement, the stakes are particularly high. "Resiliency in law enforcement is super important," explains Dustin, "because we're going to have troubles, struggles, and we need to bounce back pretty quickly." With divorce rates among first responders reaching a staggering 60-75%, the Wrights share practical strategies that have helped them navigate both professional pressures and relationship challenges.The conversation delves into several crucial aspects of relationship health: the importance of preparing emotionally before crises hit, distinguishing between having a safe partner and using them as an emotional dumping ground, and extending grace to partners who witness society's darkest moments. Ashley offers particularly valuable insights for first responder spouses: "We do not realize the amount of images, sounds, smells, things that they're taking in on a regular basis," she explains, highlighting why intentional communication and decompression time are essential.Perhaps most compelling is their discussion about supporting each other's growth journeys. When one partner embraces therapy or spiritual development, the other can misinterpret this as abandonment rather than opportunity. "How do we partner in that," Ashley asks, "rather than feeling insecure or putting the other person down?" Their answers provide a roadmap for couples facing similar challenges.Ready to strengthen your relationship while navigating the unique demands of first responder life?

Hosts: Dr. Ashlee Gethner, LCSW – Child of a Police Officer Jennifer Woosley Saylor, LPCC S – Child of a Police Officer Episode Overview: In this candid episode, Ashlee and Jennifer turn the mics on themselves to dive into their personal journeys, career paths, and how being raised in first responder families shapes not only your worldview but your entire emotional toolkit. The duo explores themes of resilience, family systems, vulnerability, and the ongoing impact of childhood experiences into adult life. Key Topics Covered The First Responder Family System: Jennifer and Ashlee reflect on the unique resilience, values, and awareness that come from growing up in a first responder household. They discuss how these environments often foster critical thinking, acute emotional intelligence, but also present real challenges especially around chaos, structure, and sometimes rigid expectations. Career Paths: Ashlee and Jennifer share their motivating moments that led them to helping professions (social work, mental health), including behind-the-scenes stories about family, pivotal college classes, and the “aha” moments that cemented their purpose. Candid talk about how family experiences (including tough love and the need to “prove ourselves”) shape career choices and attitudes. Family Dynamics & Resiliency: A reflection on the double-edged sword of first responder family dynamics. The strong values and community, alongside the strictness and sometimes unintentionally harsh communication styles that get carried from the field into the home. Insights into how these family systems continue to evolve as children grow into adults and re-negotiate relationships with their parents. Vulnerability & Forgiveness: The importance of parents, especially first responders, showing vulnerability and apologizing when things go wrong. How open, honest dialogue between parent and child can build long-term resilience and deep family bonds, even (or especially) after conflict. Parenting Reflections: Both hosts admit the learning curve of parenting, and the hope to do things differently while acknowledging that every generation makes mistakes. The value of simply saying “I’m sorry” as a parent.   If this episode resonated with you or if you have stories to share about living with a first responder, reach out to Ashlee and Jennifer on their social media platforms!   Thank you for tuning in!

Dr. Fox challenges listeners with the life-changing question: If you only had 30 days left, would you keep living the same way?

Today on the show, first responders from across the state gathered recently for a mental health conference. Doctors, nurses, pharmacists, lab techs - almost all those professions get their first taste of science at college. A University of Wyoming professor speaks about what federal cuts could do to his program. And, we hear an artist translate a new mural at the Center of the West in Cody into sound. Those stories and more.

I would love to hear how this episode impacted you.In this powerful episode of Shields Down, we take a deep dive into resilience training for first responders with PTSD, providing actionable strategies to help police officers, firefighters, paramedics, and correctional officers strengthen their mental health and emotional well-being.We start by redefining resilience as a dynamic skill, not a fixed trait, showing how first responders experiencing PTSD can adapt, recover, and thrive after repeated exposure to trauma. By understanding the psychological impact of high-stress situations, we explore how to build mental toughness and post-traumatic growth.Next, we uncover the critical role of emotional regulation in first responder PTSD recovery, emphasizing how managing stress and processing emotions can help prevent burnout, anxiety, and depression. We also discuss the importance of peer support and strong social connections, highlighting how having a trusted network of colleagues, family, and mental health professionals can be a game-changer in your healing journey.Moving forward, we focus on leveraging personal strengths, such as split-second decision-making, teamwork under pressure, and problem-solving in high-risk environments, to enhance overall mental resilience in first responders. We also address the role of trauma-informed leadership, and how agencies can better support officers and emergency personnel in overcoming PTSD and cumulative stress.Finally, we wrap up with a practical resilience-building exercise to help you identify your natural strengths, reframe past challenges, and develop a personalized action plan to increase stress resilience and emotional endurance.Whether you're a law enforcement officer, firefighter, paramedic, corrections officer, or dispatcher, or supporting someone who serves on the front lines, this episode provides real-world strategies to manage PTSD, cope with stress, and build a thriving mindset despite the daily challenges of emergency response work.

Psychedelics can help people see things from a new perspective. That includes veterans and first responders who are also using storytelling to help them overcome challenges. Also, handheld devices that translate nearly 100 languages, including Azerbaijani, Haitian Creole and Spanish are being used by some Colorado counties to help non-English speakers with civic needs. Then, their stories were nearly lost, but through art, "12 Tablecloths" recognizes Black domestic workers who served white families more than a century ago. The exhibit closes tomorrow at the Trinidad History Museum.

Send us a textWhat happens when a police sergeant and a therapist build a life together? Dustin and Ashley Wright open up about their 13-year journey as a first responder couple in this vulnerable and insightful conversation that challenges conventional thinking about trauma, communication, and resilience.The conversation takes an unexpected turn when Dustin shares how a seemingly routine cardiac arrest call triggered a trauma response that affected his intimate relationship with Ashley. This powerful revelation highlights how personal associations can make any incident potentially traumatic for first responders, regardless of its apparent severity. Even more surprising is Ashley's admission that despite her clinical training, she missed the signs of her husband's struggle – demonstrating how skilled first responders can become at compartmentalizing their experiences.Together, they unpack practical communication strategies that have helped them navigate the unique challenges of first responder life. From establishing code words for difficult days to creating intentional decompression time, the Wrights offer actionable insights for couples facing similar struggles. They emphasize building communication habits during normal times that create pathways for vulnerable conversation when crises occur.The discussion expands beyond their marriage to explore how community support and spiritual practice form essential pillars of their resilience strategy. Dustin describes his involvement with BRAVE (Building Relationships Among Veterans and Emergency Responders), while Ashley highlights her network of first responder spouses who provide understanding and encouragement. Their message is clear: no one builds resilience alone.Whether you're a first responder, the partner of one, or simply interested in strengthening your relationship through difficult times, this conversation offers both practical wisdom and emotional reassurance. The Wrights' willingness to share their personal journey provides a powerful testament to the possibility of thriving, not just surviving, as a first responder family.

Kansas City first responders get bit, spit on and cursed at while on the job. In one recent case, a firefighter paramedic died after being stabbed in the chest. Increased attention to these incidents has sparked increased protective training by the Kansas City Fire Department, and proposed federal legislation from a Missouri U.S. Senator.

Just Ask Janet - Guest: Dr. Theresa Burke, PhD

Send us a textWhat happens when men are finally given permission to explore their full emotional range? In this eye-opening conversation that concludes episode 212 with Lee Povey, we delve into the hidden emotional landscapes that many men navigate alone, often without the tools or language to understand their experiences.The discussion challenges fundamental misconceptions about emotions, particularly for men. "There is no negative emotion," Lee explains. "An emotion is just telling you about your experience." This perspective invites listeners to reconsider how we view feelings like anger, fear, or sadness – not as weaknesses to overcome, but as valuable information about our lived experiences.We explore the fascinating paradox of modern masculinity: men are simultaneously criticized for expressing certain emotions while being told others are unacceptable. This creates an impossible situation where many men retreat behind emotional walls, protecting vulnerability with anger or detachment. The conversation delves into how evolutionary responses to perceived threats continue to shape male behavior in ways that no longer serve us in contemporary society.The transformative power of men's groups emerges as a beacon of hope throughout our discussion. These spaces provide opportunities for men to be truly seen and understood, often for the first time. As Lee shares from his extensive experience facilitating these groups, "When men can come to a group and let go of that mask... it can be easier for them to connect." The simple recognition that one's struggles aren't unique can be profoundly healing.Whether you're a man seeking better understanding of your emotional life, someone who loves a man struggling with connection, or simply curious about how emotional intelligence develops across genders, this conversation offers valuable insights. Connect with Lee at leepovey.com or find him on Instagram and LinkedIn to learn more about his work with men's groups and emotional intelligence.Support the showYouTube Channel For The Podcast

C.S. Lewis in his book Mere Christianity described hope as a theological value. The Gospel is called GOOD NEWS. America has changed- not for the better. Then when we add death, devastation and the feeling of helplessness from a Natural Disaster, what little hope people still have is diminished. Hope is what the people in the Hill Country in Texas need. On the heels of one of the most catastrophic flooding events in recent U.S. history with now more than 140 confirmed deaths, many still missing and the latest significant flooding in San Saba over the last weekend, Convoy of Hope has helped deliver more than 300,000 lbs. of essential supplies across the Texas Hill Country. On today’s hour of power there will be a live update from the Hill Country with Mr. Black’s guest. Ethan Forhetz is the National Spokesperson for Convoy of Hope. Convoy of Hope is aiding Families and First Responders in the Texas Hill Country Flooding. Hear about HOPE that is coming to such hopelessness and be reminded of the power of HOPE! Today’s Hour of power is an emotional, and hopeful journey you don’t want to miss. Plus, you can become a HOPE PEDDLER for many who are without- Like they matter, because they do!!

Send us a textWhat happens when a first responder walks into a therapist's office and shares a traumatic experience so dark that the therapist needs "a few minutes" before responding? For most first responders, this confirms their worst fear: no one can handle their reality. That's why cultural competency isn't just helpful—it's essential.In this powerful conversation with the founding members of "Behind the Badge and Beyond," we explore the critical importance of specialized mental health care for those who serve our communities. Lisa Knowles, Richard Winning, Erin Sheridan, Alexa Silva, Jennifer Waldron, and host Steve Bisson bring decades of combined experience working with police officers, firefighters, EMTs, correctional officers, and military personnel.The group unpacks what makes first responder therapy uniquely challenging—like the profound emotional numbing that protects on the job but destroys relationships at home, the grief that gets misinterpreted as burnout, and the resistance to vulnerability that requires extraordinary patience from clinicians. They share stories of connecting with clients through dark humor, specialized knowledge, and authentic relationship-building that creates safety for those who protect us daily.Whether you're a first responder seeking help, a family member trying to understand, or a clinician wanting to better serve this population, this conversation offers invaluable insights into creating genuine healing spaces for those who witness trauma daily. The message is clear: first responders deserve therapists who speak their language, understand their culture, and can sit comfortably with their darkest experiences without flinching.Ready to find a culturally competent therapist or learn more about specialized mental health support for first responders?

President Trump's Visit President Trump, accompanied by First Lady Melania Trump and several officials, visited the region a week after the disaster. The visit included: A helicopter tour of the devastation. Meetings with first responders, local leaders, and families of victims. A roundtable discussion where Trump emphasized unity and competence in the emergency response. Praise for the swift federal response, including deployment of over 400 first responders and 1,500 rescues. Emotional Testimonies and Heroism Senator Ted Cruz shared deeply moving stories: The tragedy at Camp Mystic, where 17 young girls and a camp director died. A cabin known as the “Bubble In” was swept away by floodwaters. A 14-year-old boy at a nearby boys' camp helped rescue younger children. Scott Ruskin, a 25-year-old Coast Guard swimmer, rescued 165 girls from Camp Mystic, comforting them in the dark, rain-soaked night. A first-person account from a family caught in the flood described the terrifying moments as their river house was swept away. The story highlighted the survival of a young girl, Rosemary, and the tragic loss of her younger brother, Clay. Community Response and Support The community rallied with extraordinary compassion and support: Over $30 million raised in donations, with $5 million already distributed. Streets adorned with green ribbons in memory of the lost girls. Stories of survivor’s guilt, especially among children, and the long road to healing. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
