We sit down with Emelie Nimtz for the final part of a 3 part series recapping what it's like, one year later, after the line of duty death of her partner.

Frustrated with a number of issues placing Law Enforcement under siege, this episode provides insight from a nearly 40 year Law Enforcement veteran still serving on the front lines.

We were fortunate to sit down and have a conversation with Tom. Tom is a retired Law Enforcement veteran who shared his perspective on several topics.There is a lot of negative attention given to Law Enforcement portrayed by many in the media today. Although this conversation could have certainly been negative, we found it interesting to note how Tom's attitude remained very positive and upbeat regarding the topics. 

Nick Wilson of the Resiliency Project joined us to discuss mental health and the common theme consistently came back to leadership. It just goes to show whether you are talking about Florida, California, or anywhere in between, Leadership is CRUCIAL, especially these days. 

Kaylyn, a college student who is not afraid to support Law Enforcement, shares some insight while working on a journalism project involving Law Enforcement and mental health. From speaking with Officers near and far, active and retired, the results are fairly consistent. Support is lacking and its taking a toll.

We sat down with Teresa Kondek to share with us over five years later, how her husband, Charlie Kondek's legacy lives on. We also took the opportunity to hear what Teresa felt about some current trends involving her Law Enforcement Family.

Less than two weeks before their Father's one year end of watch anniversary, Emelie Nimtz takes us through the last twelve months for Elizah and Tommy.

18 years in the profession... Whats changed and how do we stay motivated? Remember what Less Brown said, “When life knocks you down, land on your back. Because if you can look up, you can get up."

Rich sat down with Caroline, Melissa, Claudia, and Kristen who combined, brought a lot of unique experience to the table. As Claudia said, "You might forget me when you hang up the phone or when you put away your uniform but I don't forget the sound of fear in your voice, your tears, the relief in your voice when it's a false alarm".

We sat down with Jon and Lou Tuesday evening. Jon is a military veteran and an active Police Officer in New Hampshire. Lou is the President of his Local Union and an active Police Officer in New Jersey. It was interesting to discuss the similarities and differences facing these Law Enforcement Officers. Being "essential", everyone leaves their families at home to care for the communities they serve.

An honest conversation about relationships with a First Responder. Emelie Nimtz, of the Benjamin Nimtz Hero Foundation, thought it was important to have a candid conversation with First Responders and not hold back. Emelie was joined by volunteers with TSF who bring a diverse background with varying experience and opinions.

March 13th, 2016... Almost four years after that horrific date, we had the privilege of sitting down with Bev Perez. Thanks to Bev, this podcast was an amazing, honest, candid, open, direct, and blunt conversation. Bev shared a small glimpse into some of the ups and downs that she had experienced. We could not be more proud and honored to call Bev one of our sisters and see all of the great things yet to come.
