| 7/8/26 |  Shot in the line of Duty - with Hali Bradford | She arrived at the hospital with 30 seconds of life and a 99.99% chance of not surviving. Her surgeon was moments from calling her time of death. And then — without medical explanation — the bleeding stopped. This week on the First Responder Wellness Podcast, host Conrad Weaver sits down with Hali Bradford, a Louisiana National Guard MP veteran and police officer who was shot and nearly killed in the line of duty on August 5, 2023. | 37m 02s | ||||||
| 7/1/26 |  How is Filing a Complaint a Mental Health Tool - with Bridget Truxillo | Most first responders think of complaints as paperwork, politics, or career-ending decisions—not something connected to wellness. But what if staying silent is actually what does the most damage? In this episode, Conrad Weaver sits down with attorney and former law enforcement officer Bridget Truxillo to explore the hidden psychological cost of toxic leadership, workplace discrimination, and the fear of speaking up. | 1h 02m 12s | ||||||
| 6/24/26 |  What Happens After the Diagnosis? With Suzanne Stone | For many people, cancer is something that happens to someone else. Until suddenly it doesn’t. In this powerful conversation, Conrad sits down with Suzanne Stone, CEO of the Livestrong Foundation, to explore what happens after a cancer diagnosis turns life upside down. While most conversations focus on treatment, Suzanne shines a light on the challenges few people talk about: strained marriages, overwhelmed caregivers, financial uncertainty, fertility decisions, and the emotional toll carried by entire families. | 31m 03s | ||||||
| 6/17/26 |  Mental Warefare is Part of the Path - Doc Springer | What if some of the things we’ve been taught about trauma, resilience, and suicide prevention are actually making the problem worse? In this powerful conversation, Conrad Weaver sits down with Dr. Shauna ”Doc” Springer—psychologist, author, speaker, and one of the leading voices in military and first responder mental health—to explore the realities of what she calls ”mental warfare.” | 42m 35s | ||||||

| 3/4/26 |  Marriage, Badges, and Breakthroughs | In this conversation, Conrad sits down with Dylan and Kella Bates—two first responders who’ve worked in very different worlds, from the nonstop pace of the DC area to the isolation and intensity of rural Alaska. They talk candidly about what the public doesn’t see: the whiplash of going from an infant death to a “noise complaint,” the personal weight of responding to one of your own in crisis, and how lack of debriefing and ongoing training can quietly erode an officer’s wellness over time. | 55m 00s | ||||||

Click here to take the Leadership Assessment: http://firstresponderwellness.co/assessment Episode 122 - Unlearn Survival, and Relearn Peace - with Kevin Barnhill This episode is a raw conversation about what happens when the job doesn’t just change your schedule—it changes you. Conrad Weaver sits down with Kevin Barnhill, a former pastor turned police sergeant turned clinician, to talk about the quiet identity drift so many first responders experience: the moment your badge stops being something you wear and starts becoming who you are. Kevin shares how he “lost himself” for nearly a decade—becoming sharper, more cynical, more irritable—while still doing the work and trying to survive the pace, the calls, and the culture. And then, in a twist that feels almost too small to be true, he describes a wake-up moment that wasn’t a shooting or a barricade… but a minor citizen complaint that revealed how far he’d moved from the person he wanted to be. They dig into the difference between bosses and leaders, why punitive environments create fear, and why mentorship—not micromanagement—is often the missing intervention. The heartbeat of the episode lands in one phrase Kevin drops near the end: “Unlearning survival and relearning peace.” If you’ve felt yourself hardening, disconnecting, or living on edge, this conversation offers language for what’s happening—and a path back. ABOUT KEVINKevin Barnhill is a former pastor and retired police sergeant with 28 years in law enforcement, including leadership roles such as internal affairs. Today he serves as a clinician, helping first responders and other high-stress professionals move from survival mode into healing, clarity, and sustainable peace.

| 2/18/26 |  You're Only as Sick as Your Secrets - Matt Bloesch | Episode 121: You’re Only as Sick as Your Secrets - Matt Bloesch Retirement is supposed to feel like relief. For Matt Bloesch, it does—but not because he simply “made it to the finish line.” After 26 years in the San Francisco Bay Area and retiring at captain, Matt describes what most first responders rarely say out loud: the job doesn’t just change what you’ve seen—it changes who you are at home, what you believe about the world, and how safe your family feels when you walk through the door. | 46m 49s | ||||||
| 2/11/26 |  You Don't Have to be Falling Apart to Need Healing - Kemmi Sadler | In this episode of the First Responder Wellness Podcast, Conrad sits down with Kemmi Saddler, a former local law enforcement officer who went from dispatch to patrol—and then into a 20-year career with the Diplomatic Security Service, protecting people and places most of us will never see. | 48m 18s | ||||||
| 2/4/26 |  The Moment We Arrive On Scene, We Become a Part of Their Story - Lt. Sarah Shendy | Some people wear the uniform and slowly disappear inside it—hardened, exhausted, running on fumes. Sarah Shendy is the opposite. Nearly 18 years into law enforcement, she still talks about the job with the kind of awe most people lose after year one. And in this conversation, she explains why. | 46m 38s | ||||||
