On this episode of "Bend Don't Break," Neil speaks with Jess Flores, a former police officer who has navigated the challenging journey from law enforcement to becoming a transition coach.
Jess shares her gripping story of near-death experiences on the job, her struggle with injury, and the painful reality of losing her law enforcement identity.
Listeners will hear how Jess battled feelings of betrayal, isolation, and hopelessness before finding a new purpose in helping other officers transition out of policing.
