Listen in on this podcast as Sean Wyman delivers one of the most important messages of our time… “Mental health and First Responders”.  

 _______

Public Safety Professionals are killing themselves more than the people they encounter daily in their profession. As a Public Safety Professional this is devastating and unacceptable. 

The problem is Public Safety Professionals do not get a lot of training when it comes to dealing with social emotional issues. As a Police Officer, I learned to shoot, drive, fight, enforce laws and protect citizens but I never learned about the social emotional impact trauma has on my family and I over my career. 

When I discovered trauma informed care and applied it to my job and my personal life, I realized this training is needed across our industry.

I found the right partnerships and created Going Beyond The Call Mental Health Fitness for Public Safety Professionals. I want to reduce Public Safety suicides dramatically over the next 5 years. Lt. Colonel David Grossman wrote the foreword for our book and had this to say: 

"One of the most important books (and programs) of our time. A hidden impact, a stigmatized secret that overshadows the men and women who sacrifice every day. With this training and these tactics for wellness, we can stop the tragic statistics to these professions. 

Going Beyond the Call is an action plan for the magnificent individuals who “go beyond the call” every day, and for our very civilization, to survive and thrive amid death and darkness. 

We must begin a process, a movement, a revolution, a culture shift in training in which every first responder is well equipped with the information in this vital book and training."

By: Lt. Col. Dave Grossman, author, On Killing, On Combat, & Assassination Generation 

This program is designed to help Public Safety Organizations:

*Bridge gaps in the communities they serve

*Reduce liability and lower the bottom line 

*Create a higher quality of life mentally, physically, and physiologically professionally and personally. 

* Save First Responders Lives

About the Book

Dustin Rivenbark has dealt with addiction firsthand, seen the devastating effects of infidelity in a marriage, lost what he thought was his livelihood, lost a daughter to Potter syndrome, lost a mother to drug addiction, and dealt with ongoing health issues. All of this took the wind out of his sails, and he found himself broken, lost, and afraid. Rivenbark wanted to fight through the scars and the pain of life, but he needed a system that would give him a road map to freedom. In Courage and Redemption, he shares how the six key battle principles from the story of Joshua helped lay the groundwork for him to turn tragedy into triumph. Through his personal story, he tells how the pains of the past don’t have to be crippling; he offers testimony that through all the trials and tragedy, he has witnessed God’s power in many ways. Courage and Redemption narrates that not only has Rivenbark dedicated his life to being the hands and feet of Christ but he’s also committed to motivating people to never settle with the status quo. Be determined to succeed. Be passionate. Believe in yourself.
