In this episode of That Optimism Man, I sit down with David Berez, a remarkable figure who merges law enforcement and positive psychology. With over 20 years as a police officer and a master's degree in applied positive psychology, David is pioneering resilience and well-being strategies for those on the front lines. We dive into the concept of courageous optimism—the mindset that empowers individuals to run toward danger and challenges, driven by a belief in their ability to effect change. David shares insights on how intentional optimism can transform police culture, enhance mental health, and bolster community connections. Join us as we explore the profound impact of optimism in policing and learn how to support those who serve our communities.
