In the first installment of this three-part series, Leanne shares her powerful journey through law enforcement — beginning with her roots in a law enforcement family and continuing through her own path from personal trainer to officer. She opens up about the challenges of early training, the pressure of tough coaching, and the internal battles around identity and resilience.
This episode also explores the emotional weight carried by families in the profession — including the complexities of parenting, the cost of unprocessed trauma, and the need for honest, compassionate support systems both at home and in the field. Leanne speaks with vulnerability about the importance of integrity in relationships and the healing power of community.
