Dan Zia Joseph is a US Army veteran who served as an active duty combat engineer.

In his 30s, he found himself seeking purpose, distinctly influenced by friends of his in the service, which prompted him to embark on his military career. Through his experiences, he reflects on the devastating impact mental health issues and suicide have had on his circles of fellow servicemen and women. 

We discuss how this awareness in himself and others prompted him to dive into seeking a Master’s degree in psychology to educate in these topics.  He has written several books on these topics which we discuss, including discussing hacks for healthy mindset, sleep, dealing with poor leaders, psychology through jiujitsu, and building resilience.

Dan Joseph, the author and driving force behind CombatPsych.com, is a former United States Army Combat Engineer who transitioned his vast experience into insights on mental health, resilience, and leadership. 

His journey began as a civilian before he became an Army Officer, a path that profoundly influenced his writing and approach to psychological wellness.  With a Master's degree in Organizational Psychology, Dan's expertise is deeply rooted in his personal and professional experiences, particularly in the military context. 

His book, "Backpack to Rucksack: Insight Into Leadership and Resilience By Military Experts," is a testament to his dedication.  It offers practical and actionable guidance, emphasizing the importance of proactively strengthening mental health and resilience. This commitment was further fueled by a transformative event: a soldier in his platoon surviving a suicide attempt, which inspired Dan to educate incoming leaders on these crucial issues. 

His work encapsulates a blend of personal narratives from dealing with the trauma of combat and scholarly research, providing a unique and impactful perspective on leadership and mental wellness.

We frequently talk about stress and trauma, as they are direct facets to true wellness.  Navigating trauma is essential to our operational capacity as first responders and family members, which means understanding it!  My conversation with Dr. Brooke Bartlett was a captivating one for me, which means I know it will be the same for you.  We talk about Dr. Brooke's entry into learning about trauma and working with military vets and first responders.  

We chat wellness programs, key factors to know about trauma for first responders, including its subjectivism and relativism.  We also explore ways to proactively build conversation around how trauma affects the family.  This is one for all first responders, their loved ones, and anyone who wants to appropriately navigate stress with life and relationships.

Commander Cristian Adams and I have collaborated on many things, most recently regional police recruitment and wellness initiatives.  Although I've  been a commander for a literal minute- not "street minute" which means a long time- we first connected many assignments ago.  We recount nostalgic, funny patrol stories where I was a K9 handler responding to his fair city of Auburn and he was a Field Trainer.  

One thing I appreciate most about Cristian is his seemingly fluid ability to toggle serious and silly- the latter's value is a topic we discuss.  The talk about the concept of promotion and leadership needs, how to care, and the mindset and values behind genuine community trust and policing.  

Policing is truly a team sport, and we highlight a range of applications to this, which evolves beyond officers on a crew, but transcending units, ranks, and even departments.
--
Commander Adams began his career with the Auburn Police Department on November 21, 2005.  Cristian has served as a property detective, Defensive Tactics Instructor, and Field Training Officer during those 12 years.  He was promoted to Sergeant on July 1, 2017, where he was assigned to the patrol division.  Cristian was promoted to the rank of Commander in February 2020 and was assigned to the patrol division.  In July of 2022, he was assigned to Administrative Services.

 Cristian oversees recruiting for Auburn PD and has a team of 8 officers who assist. He is also the Co-Chair of the Auburn Police Advisory Committee, which is a community-based advisory board for the Auburn PD.  They meet monthly and work to create solutions for problems in the city.

 Cristian graduated from the University of Washington with a Bachelor of Arts in Law, Society, and Justice in 2004.  He was also a track athlete for the University of Washington from 2001-2004.

I had to pleasure to first meet Minerva when she was co-hosting for the Police Applicant Podcast with Ken (see episode 53!). We chatted police hiring then and now.

Prompted by a social media post about challenges facing women in policing (@fitresponder reel), we got chatting about how Minerva faced or witnessed  a LOT of what was presented.

In our conversation, we talk about the seemingly impossible work/life balance with themes of burnout and over-investment in police identity.

Her experiences and insights on family dynamics: sacrifices and grind while working shift-work and working to manage time with kids AND one’s spouse/partner.

From all of these perspectives and topics, we explore historical and traditional mindsets and what a police agency leadership and culture can do to affect these dynamics positively or negatively.

Whether or not policing is for you, you've imagined a policy academy environment.  It may have been suggested to you, from the comedies by the same title, SWAT, or Silence of the Lambs.  In truth, it's a blend of all those things.. at least it was for me.

My main TAC Officer (WA State Academy Instructor) was Ken Henson.  He didn't work for my department, but if you think that would offer any initial lessened scrutiny, anonymity, or reports back home- you'd be sadly mistaken.  You see- Ken worked for my department, PRIOR. He and a few others from the region left Kent PD when Lakewood PD was being stood up as a new department.  Ken had a network, audience, and impact- which I came find was well-earned.

He was stern, rigid, strict.  His military background (MP) was apparent, and he didn't let us off easily, EVER. Within quick time, we started to be let into his head and his heart.  His vast experience, but beyond that, his unique candor and ability to relay his lessons, which any tenured cop will know is worth its weight in gold.  By the end of it, he had us reeling, and we were even able to make him crack up with our impersonations of TAC instructors before we were released into "the abyss" as some would recognize.

Ken was one of my first influential leaders as I went from baby cop to toddler cop.  Years later, it was my distinct honor to pick his brain about service, tutelage, mentorship, and legacy.  We talk about our fallen comrades, his fallen partners and friends at Lakewood PD, the impacts of the job then and now, and on moving forward.

---

Ken Henson started his career in service when he enlisted in the US Army as a military police officer in 1989, where he quickly became a weapons and tactics instructor in 1991.  Shortly after, he became a DARE and GREAT program instructor, started the bike patrol at JBLM, and served in the unit’s Honor Guard and Color Guard.

He started his civilian law enforcement career with the Kent Police Department, and lateraled to Lakewood Police.  In his career, he served as a training officer, WA State Academy TAC instructor, hostage negotiator, robbery detective,  

His training acumen includes a host of topics to include patrol tactics, defensive tactics, crisis intervention, and simunitions.

Mark Bouchard is a Canadian cop who has been at the game for about the same amount of time as I have. His career and journey have taken him to some dark places, and where he and others found the light, he aims to bring that light-finding skill to our first responder community.  

Mark first reached out to me in the early part of the year. He saw what I was doing on the socials and it resonated. He, likewise, was committed to enhancing the conversation of first responder mental health through working on his book (which is now finished and available- scroll down for the deets!)

Although we initially connected, started chatting and recorded this episode back many months ago, the conversations and points made are continually worthy, continually necessary. Our stigmas are killing our health, our careers.. and they’re killing us.

As we go full bore into the holidays, I hope we are all well, yet I know we are not.  The holidays can be a hard time for folks. Lots of loss, in the job, in our personal lives. Broken families, dysfunction about.  However, it is my sincere hope and belief that as we continue to have these critical chats, sharing critical ideas and fostering connection, we are getting where we we need to go.. if slowly, still surely. 

The best to you and yours. Enjoy the likely last episode of Blue Grit Radio for this calendar year.  Good tidings to you, yours, and as always STAY GRITTY.

I have had the distinct pleasure to meet these two gentlemen aka Dudes in the podcast space.  I've been on their podcast a few times, The Collective, which has crazily been airing EVERY DAY of 2023.  Each time, the knowledge bombs are explosive (I'm talking about things they and others say that leave me in a beautiful mental fog of pondering (where I have to snapped back to reality when I'm called upon to offer response or reflection).  

These are two men who truly GET IT when we talk about not only veteran/first responder support, but how to live and lead with conviction and constantly keeping on top of that throttle to ensure perpetual betterment of self and others.

I am truly grateful to have their connection, camaraderie, mentorship, and iron for which to sharpen myself.

I learned about Seb and his sheer intellectual and physical badassery through the gentlemen at The Collective.  I was humbled to be invited on the platform and while I was perfectly content with the experience, I was put on the spot after the episode.  The Collective Dudes, as I call them asked me if I would come back on (easy yes) and then asked who I would like to come on the show with.  Seb was a name that popped up immediately. 

There are a lot of reasons why his name popped up.  He has an intriguing, impressive resume.  He is a dynamic writer, a dynamic speaker.  He has a strong online presence.  He has a strong physical presence (I'm worried if he flexes his forearms, it's gonna start cracking screens).  He has some dope AF dogs (see his Insta below).   

He is the type of man where the more exposure you get to him, you want to keep learning more about him, how he thinks, how he lives, and how he leads.  I've been around a lot of people, first responders and otherwise, and it is easy to see there are not many people like Seb, which means we need to take advantage and pick that big brain of his. 

Listen in and listen up as we talk about Seb's origin story, his entry into a life of service.  If your brain hurts when you hear him speak, that's good... that's your brain growing.
