Headlined Show, Responder Resilience April 24, 2024
In this compelling episode, we reunite three distinguished law enforcement veterans: retired Chief John Monaghan, retired Chief Douglas Wyman, and retired New Hampshire State Police Sergeant James Steinmetz. These three friends, previously featured in the impactful film "Inside the Box," come together once more to delve into profound discussions on camaraderie, support, and the journey of healing and growth following service-related trauma.
Throughout the episode, John, Doug, and Jamey explore the critical concepts of the "Cop Box" and the "Man Box," examining how these societal and cultural constructs have influenced their mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being since the film's debut. They candidly share their personal evolutions, shedding light on the transformative power of vulnerability, mutual support, and the pursuit of post-traumatic growth. This conversation uncovers the layers of resilience forged through struggle and the importance of being a steadfast brother's keeper within the law enforcement community.
Moreover, the trio offers invaluable advice to fellow officers who may be struggling in silence, emphasizing the strength found in sharing one's story and the critical need to challenge and change organizational cultures that stigmatize mental health issues. By using their own experiences with post-traumatic stress, grief, substance use, and suicidal ideation as powerful examples, they aim to inspire a shift towards more supportive, understanding, and mentally healthy law enforcement agencies. Join us for an episode that not only aims to overcome stigma and bias but also lights the path to a healthier service life for those who protect and serve.
