I am going to guess that most of you, like me, like being in control of everything. Most first responders have this trait. In fact, I would say most people in the world want to be in control all the time.
The reality is that most of the times we are NOT. You can't control other people or most situations, but you CAN control You and how You react. When you stop giving your power and energy to the things and people you can't control you will start to regain your personal power so you can use it the way you need to that benefits YOU.
Go out and conquer your day and week.

If you want to know the secrets of the Universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration - Nikola Tesla
We are all energy. We put out a frequency and we all vibrate. That is what energy does. We have so much power to change our lives, but we stay stuck in misery. What if you changed how you thought about things? 
Scientists say we have about 70k-80k thoughts a DAY! Wow....That's a lot of thoughts, and here is the kicker. Most of the thoughts we are thinking were the same thoughts as yesterday. What if you changed 10% of those? What about 5% or 3%?
Your life would begin to change for the better. 
Go out and conquer your day.

I want you to remember this - You are Good Enough. I know you might not think it because you might be facing some challenges right now. I know how that feels. You have made mistakes in the past. You might have said something to someone that you regret. Maybe you didn't act fast enough. Whatever the reasons you can't change the past. You are HUMAN and you will make mistakes. 
But, it doesn't take away from the fact that you are a good person and you are good enough. When you start feeling better and you start taking care of yourself you will start to see that more and more. Brighter days are ahead.
Just don't give up. Keep going. It will always get better my friend.
Go out and conquer you day.
More great shows coming.

Some people like being alone and they are much happier. On the other end, many people think a relationship will fix all of their problems and it rarely does. If anything, it can often bring more problems. If you are single or just out of a relationship why not take some time and work on yourself?
When you find solace and strength in being alone, and you start loving yourself again, you will be a much better place to be in a relationship again.
Go out and conquer your day and week.

If you are struggling but pushing through I want you to Trust the Process. If you are on a journey of healing and recovery, I want you to Trust the Process. 
Any type of self improvement and growth is going to be uncomfortable and often painful but it's needed for your life. Believe in yourself and be confident even in the midst of adversity. 
Trust in yourself and Trust the Process.
Be safe and take care -
Until next time,

Make a habit of checking in with yourself. Here are some tips on how to do it:
Be Honest with yourself about your feelings. You might be able to BS others, but you can't BS yourself.
Check in with your support system. Don't wait for them to call you. You can reach out. If they care about you they will take the time. 
Create time for reflection. Dig deep and find out who you are and what your purpose and why are.
Start Journaling. There is something powerful about the written word - Your written words!
Practice Mindfulness. This helps tremendously. You can meditate, practice breathing techniques. We have so many options available to us today. It might be difficult at first but you will get better. 
Go out and conquer your day - Until next time.

Endings can be painful. I have been through my share as I am sure you all have. But endings can be the start of something beautiful if you are open to it. Endings are a part of life. We are born and someday we will die (Hopefully a long time from now), but it's an ending. And when something ends, something begins.
Keep your mind and heart open and realize that something need to end in your life for beautiful things, and people, to enter into it. 
Go out and conquer you day and week.

We are all busy. You. Me. And everyone else in the world. But, you have 60 SECONDS in your day to make a difference for yourself and someone else.
What can you do in 60 Seconds? More than you realize:
Give yourself a high five
Repost something uplifting
Take 10 deep breaths
Support a friend
Pay yourself a compliment
Mediate
Read a page of a book
The list goes on, but most people think that 60 seconds in nothing. I need hours and days, months or years to make positive steps forward.
Not the case. Start with 60 Seconds and build from there. MAKE THE TIME.
 
Go out and conquer your day.

Criminal Justice Evolution Podcast: Conrad Weaver - PTSD911 Documentary

Hello everyone and welcome back to the Top Ranked Criminal Justice Evolution Podcast. Top ranked because of YOU, the listener and supporter. I am blessed and grateful to have all YOU AMAZING listeners and supporters and I thank you again. Please take a moment and give us that 5-Star Rating and Review on Apple Podcasts.
If you are a new listener, welcome. We know you will love the show. If you are a long-time listener, welcome back.
A big thank you to ALL the brave men and women in the Criminal Justice Field. Remember you ALL are honored, cherished and LOVED.
My next guest is Conrad Weaver. He is an Award-winning producer and President and owner of Conjostudios, LLC, a video production company based in Emmitsburg, Maryland.  Conrad received a Mid-America Regional EMMY® Award for his 2014 documentary feature, the Great American Wheat Harvest (2014).  His second feature length documentary film, Thirsty Land (2016) was completed in early 2016 and is currently available on Amazon Prime.  The award-winning documentary, Heroin’s Grip (2018) is Conrad’s third feature length documentary, and he is the executive producer and writer on a feature narrative film called Scars of an Orphan.
Emergency first responders are suffering from post-traumatic stress in record numbers, but they are often afraid of losing their job if they ask for help; this must change.
Conrad created the award winning documentary PTSD911. PTSD911 is a film about real people: normal, average human beings who have chosen to work in professions that require above average heroism, fortitude, and resolve. These men and women have jobs that require a willingness to face things that most of us can’t even imagine yet maintain a high level of dignity and professionalism.  First responders repeatedly see and experience things that most of us will never see, causing compound issues related to post-traumatic stress injuries and disorders.
A great show with a great guest.
