    • Digging Deeper — PTSD, Bullet Time, and EMDR
      Dec 27 2025

      In Episode 2 of Overwatch: Behind the Badge, I dig deeper into my story. This is the longer, unfiltered version — how my PTSD progressed over time, what “bullet time” felt like on the job, how trauma followed me off duty, and what eventually pushed me to retire early from law enforcement.

      I talk honestly about judgment, isolation, hallucinations, my suicide attempt, and the moments that made it impossible to ignore what PTSD was doing to my nervous system. I also share how EMDR therapy helped me begin reclaiming my life, and why transparency and breaking the silence matter — especially for veterans, law enforcement, and first responders.

      This episode isn’t about sympathy.
      It’s about understanding.
      It’s about transparency.
      And it’s about breaking the silence around the things we’ve been taught to carry alone.

      Episode 1 – My Story & Why This Podcast Exists
      In this debut episode, I share my journey as a veteran and law enforcement officer—the battles behind the badge, the trauma I’ve carried, and the moments that pushed me to my breaking point. I also explain why WE created Overwatch: Behind The Badge: to give a voice to those who’ve suffered in silence and to confront the mental health struggles that too often go unspoken. This is real. This is raw. And it’s for anyone ready to face the truth.

      • Veterans Crisis Line: 988 then press 1

      • First Responders / Law Enforcement Support: 1‑800‑273‑8255 or text CONNECT to 741741
