In this episode, our host Crystal discusses the realities of law enforcement and the lasting impact it has on those who serve. Guests Jeff Takeda and Sharon Giles paint a vivid picture of the harsh realities of the profession, touching on burnout and the strain it puts on individuals after a combined fifty plus years behind the badge. This conversation highlights the need for empathy, not just towards the victims, but also towards one another within the law enforcement community.

Join us in this episode as we peel back the layers, offering a glimpse into the lives of those who face the trauma head-on every day.
