Dr. Baumgart is a licensed psychologist who is board certified in police and public safety psychology. She is an author, speaks publicly about the challenges police officers face when transitioning into retirement, is on staff as a psychologist within a law enforcement organization, and is married to a now retired police officer. Dr Baumgart shares with us some of the challenges that began to surface within her marriage, what it was like as she began to realize that those challenges might be the result of her husbands public safety duties, and how they worked together to address those issues and improve interpersonal conditions within the home. Dr Baumgart explains the complexities of what transpires in the brain of a first responder, how that influences mood and behavior, and what that looks and feels like to a loved one. She also talks about retirement in first response. She shares what her and her husband expected, versus what they experienced, when he decided to retire from law enforcement. The lessons they learned are detailed in her book "Surviving Retirement" .
