A Healthy Shift

[343] - When Symbols Matter More Than Your People

Text me what you thought of the show 😊

I examine how performative activism, DEI optics, and the exclusion of police from community spaces erode trust while frontline workers carry the load. The focus turns to funding basics that actually help shift workers: staffing, fatigue management, mental health, and visible, competent service.

• personal experience of organisational failure across policing and emergency services
• how pride and DEI drift from lived reality and become staged content
• why excluding police undermines trust and weakens community ties
• the cost of funding optics over frontline basics
• fatigue, burnout, and invisibility among shift workers
• a call to redirect money to staffing, education, and mental health
• the case for competence, decency, and getting the basics right
