Guest Introduction  Today, we are honored to welcome Dr. Warren Farrell, a renowned Ph.D., internationally bestselling author, and one of the world's top 100 thought leaders (as recognized by the Financial Times). His work has shaped both the women's and men's movements, and his latest book, Role Mate to Soul Mate, dives deep into the science and art of sustaining intimate relationships. Having been married for over 30 years, Dr. Farrell doesn't just teach relationship transformation—he lives it.  In this episode, we're breaking down the critical shifts needed to move from just “coexisting” in relationships to truly thriving. If you've ever felt unheard, misunderstood, or stuck in recurring patterns with your partner, this conversation will change the way you approach love, communication, and intimacy.  Three Powerful Takeaways  ✅ Criticism is a Relationship Killer—But You Can Change Your Response ✅ Boundaries and Emotional Safety Are the Foundations of Lasting Love ✅ Understanding Your Partner's Emotional Needs Creates a Conflict-Free Zone  Key Discussion Topics  1️The Hidden Traps of Criticism and How to Overcome Them (⏱ 17:4 "If you respond to criticism by being defensive, that means you are human. That was functional for survival, but it's dysfunctional for love." – Dr. Warren Farrell  Criticism often triggers a fight-or-flight response, making even minor comments feel like personal attacks. Shifting the mindset from defensiveness to curiosity transforms relationships. Instead of reacting, creating a safe space for dialogue allows for deeper trust and connection. Learning to listen without taking things personally fosters emotional intimacy rather than eroding it.  2️The Power of Boundaries in Love and Parenting (⏱ 05:0  "Boys that are dad-deprived often lack postponed gratification, which is the single biggest predictor of success or failure." – Dr. Warren Farrell  Boundaries aren't about control; they are about creating safety and stability—whether in parenting, personal relationships, or partnerships. Clear and consistent boundaries help people feel respected and seen. Without them, relationships can spiral into resentment or chaos. When structure and accountability are present, it leads to a greater sense of self-worth, stronger partnerships, and deeper emotional security.  3️Creating a Conflict-Free Zone in Relationships (⏱ 31:2  "If your partner criticizes you, you can either argue back—where there's a 100% chance you won't be heard—or bring it up during structured time, where there's a 100% chance you will." – Dr. Warren Farrell  Most couples struggle with navigating conflict effectively, but structured communication—like weekly “caring and sharing” sessions—creates space for listening, appreciation, and deeper understanding. Shifting from reactive to intentional conversations reduces unnecessary tension and builds a foundation of trust, vulnerability, and long-term love. Final Thought  If you've ever felt frustrated by miscommunication in your relationships or wondered how to create deeper intimacy and understanding, this episode will be a game-changer. Dr. Farrell's insights provide actionable strategies to transform your love life and build a partnership that feels safe, fulfilling, and truly connected.  Grab his latest book, Role Mate to Soul Mate, and start your journey toward a stronger, more fulfilling relationship today!  Listen now and share this episode with someone who needs it!

In this episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosts Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton dive into one of the least talked about struggles of leadership in law enforcement and first responder careers—loneliness (Amazon Affiliate). Moving into a leadership role comes with increased responsibility, difficult decision-making, and a shift in relationships with peers. Many leaders find themselves caught between admin and their team, feeling disconnected from both. But leadership doesn't have to mean isolation. This episode breaks down why leadership can feel lonely and provides five practical ways to maintain connections, balance authority, and lead without feeling alone. 1. Why Leadership Can Feel Lonely in First Responder Professions You go from being “one of the guys” to being the person in charge. You may feel like you can't vent the same way you used to because others now look to you for stability. Peers may distance themselves out of fear of favoritism or because the dynamic has changed. You're expected to make tough, unpopular decisions, and that often puts you in a position of conflict. There's a pressure to appear strong and competent at all times, even when you're struggling. 2. Five Common Leadership Challenges (And How to Overcome Them) 1. The "Us vs. Them" Mentality Example: You were once part of the squad, joking around and bonding. Now, you're their supervisor, and some officers start seeing you as “management” instead of a friend. Remedy: Lead with fairness and transparency. Make it clear that your role may have changed, but you're still there to support them, not just enforce policies. 2. Feeling Like There's No One to Talk To Example: You used to confide in fellow officers about job stress, but now that you're in charge, you feel like you have to keep everything to yourself. Remedy: Find a trusted mentor or peer in leadership. Connecting with others who understand the struggles of leadership provides a healthy outlet for venting and advice. 3. Balancing Respect with Camaraderie Example: You want your team to trust you, but you also need to maintain authority. If you're too friendly, you risk losing their respect. If you're too distant, you lose their trust. Remedy: Be approachable but professional. Set boundaries, but also take time to connect with your team outside of disciplinary moments. Show that you care about them as people. 4. Carrying the Emotional Burden of Tough Decisions Example: You have to discipline an officer you used to be close with, and it weighs on you personally. Remedy: Separate personal feelings from professional responsibilities. A good leader makes tough decisions for the benefit of the entire team. You can be fair without feeling guilty. 5. Navigating the Politics of Leadership Example: Upper management pressures you to enforce policies that you don't fully agree with, putting you in a tough spot between your team and your superiors. Remedy: Advocate for your team while staying professional. Communicate concerns up the chain of command and look for ways to implement change from within. 3. Five Ways to Stay Connected Without Losing Authority 1. Keep an Open-Door Policy Encourage officers to bring concerns to you before they become bigger problems. Example: If an officer is struggling with burnout, help them find solutions before it affects performance. 2. Set the Tone for Team Culture Lead by example—demonstrate professionalism, respect, and teamwork. Example: If you expect officers to handle situations calmly under pressure, model that behavior yourself. 3. Invest in Leadership Training & Peer Networks Connect with other leaders in law enforcement to exchange experiences and strategies. Example: Attend training seminars, leadership workshops, or online forums to build your leadership skillset. 4. Show Appreciation & Recognition Small gestures go a long way in earning trust and respect. Example: Recognizing an officer's hard work publicly builds morale and strengthens team relationships. 5. Find Balance Outside of Work Don't let leadership consume your identity. Invest in hobbies, family, and friendships outside the job. Example: Having a strong personal support system makes it easier to handle the pressures of leadership. 4. Why This Matters: Leadership in first responder careers can feel isolating, but it doesn't have to be. By recognizing the common struggles, building strong connections, and maintaining a leadership mindset that values trust and fairness, you can lead with confidence without feeling alone. Listen now to gain leadership insights that will help you navigate the challenges of the role while staying connected with those who matter most!

I'm thinking of a movie, Stranger Than Fiction. It came out in 2006 starring Will Ferrell, Emma Thompson, Dustin Hoffman, and Queen Latifah. In it, Will Ferrell plays a mentally unstable IRS auditor who starts hearing an author's voice in his head and as she writes this fictional story, he is the main character and the events literally happen in his life. So he hears her speak of events, such as something happening that causes his death. And he's left talking back, saying, “Hey! Stop doing that! I'm not ok with that story!” I feel it's an incredible depiction that I realize is actually going on in my life, and I'm not taking it seriously. In the last episode I talked with Marianne Renner, whose new book is Self-Talk: 10 Stories You Tell Yourself That Hold You Back…And How to Overcome Them. This is my muse. I invite you to think through this with me…the idea that today you are going along listening to a fairly fictional depiction of your life that if you're not aware of, you'll just agree with. Also, if you'll go to mariannerenner.com/selftalk, you can get the first three chapters of Marianne's book absolutely free.  Sign up for your $1/month trial period at shopify.com/kevin Go to shipstation.com and use code KEVIN to start your free trial.

We all think we know what self-talk is. But I think we miss the gravity of it. I'm reminded of the joke where one fish asks another fish "how's the water?" The other fish replies, "what the heck is water?" We were never introduced to our own self-talk, it was there since the day we were conceived to varying degrees. We are not necessarily conscious of it. In this episode we expand on self-talk to help you conceptualize how it is your very perception of life. My guest is Marianne Renner. I've gotten to know Marianne well over the last year and she has a real story of not only changing her self-talk, but transforming herself in a way that she can't really even recognize the person she used to be. She lost her mom at an early age and was left with a broken hearted father. She fell into addiction. She considered ending her life. Even tried. And then had one of those divine moments of clarity. To me it is akin to the fish all of the sudden realizing it was in water. Marianne has not just changed her life, she has changed the very essence of the person she is, and she's thriving. She has a new book coming out, Self-Talk: 10 Stories You Tell Yourself That Hold You Back…And How to Overcome Them. On a personal side, one of Marianne's mentors in her journey to remake herself and her life, was my father. Dan Miller. He encouraged her to write a book. She did, completing it right around the time my Dad died. She had him in mind to write the forward to her book. But in his absence, she asked me to carry on the legacy. I am incredibly honored to have written a heartfelt forward for Marianne's book. I'm honored for multiple reasons, the top one being, I feel this is a message we all desperately need. If you'll go to mariannerenner.com/selftalk, you can get the first three chapters of her book absolutely free.
