We talk about work/life balance (which is an illusion) and the frequent over-identity of our police careers. Things that help this are recognizing our legit skillsets and that even if we intend for this to be our 20-30+ year career, it doesnt have to be.
Whether you are fully engaged with a smile on your face or burned out (to a crisp), the more you recognize your potential in other endeavors careers, the better cop you will be. To explore these ideas, Sgt. Shaun Nestor joins me- tune in to learn how to flex your mindset on this powerful topic!
