Many first responders find themselves forced to retire or leave their careers due to injury or other circumstances, and this can lead to feelings of uncertainty and a lack of purpose. Jess, however, took her own experience of losing her job and turned it into an opportunity to help others in similar situations.

Our guest, Jess Flores started her career in law enforcement at the young age of 21, but just ten years later, her career was abruptly taken away due to an injury. Uncovering a story that goes beyond the uniform and delves deeply into the complex struggles faced by those on the front lines, Jess opens up about the abrupt end of her career.

Jess uses here experience as a former law enforcement officer to support her brothers and sisters as founder of NextShift, a coaching program that helps first responders transition out of their careers and find their purpose. She also discusses the culture shock of entering the world of first responders at a young age, the traumatic incidents she experienced on the job, and the lack of support she received from her department.
From the topic of identity and the process of rebuilding one's life after a significant loss, her story highlights the importance of finding purpose and rediscovering one's identity outside of the uniform. By sharing her experiences and providing support through NextShift and The Next Shift Podcast, Jess is making a significant impact in the lives of first responders and helping to create a more supportive and understanding culture within the profession.

It’s not easy to admit you’re struggling, especially when you’re supposed to be the strong one. Brad Savage, a 15-year veteran of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, knows this better than most. From serving in Canada’s largest cities to its most remote communities, Brad has seen and endured more than many can imagine. But his story isn’t just about the job; it’s about the unspoken struggles and silent battles so many first responders face—and the courage it takes to confront them. In this episode, Brad opens up about his trauma, loss, and resilience journey. From his officer-involved shooting to personal tragedies, he shares how he once believed he had to carry it all alone. But finding Save a Warrior changed everything. Brad explains how diving deep into his past helped him understand that the job wasn’t the root of his struggles—it was the unhealed trauma from long before. He talks about the tools that helped him heal, including the surprising impact of meditation, which gave him space to pause, reflect, and reconnect with his family. Brad’s story is a raw and honest look at the reality of life as a first responder. He doesn’t shy away from the hard truths like the cultural tendency to avoid vulnerability or the toll secondary trauma can take on families and coworkers. Yet, his message is one of hope. He shares why he’s passionate about peer support, how he’s breaking the stigma of mental health in policing, and why learning to “share your experience without sharing your trauma” is a game-changer for first responders everywhere. This episode is packed with insight, humanity, and practical advice for anyone navigating trauma. Brad’s reflections remind us that vulnerability isn’t weakness; it’s where true strength begins.

Warning: This Episode discusses suicide, so please listen with caution. We were supposed to be on a podcast release break, but this one couldn’t wait. Sometimes, life throws you those days where grief and loss show up uninvited, and the weight of it all just feels too big to hold alone. So, we hit record. Raw, unfiltered, and straight from the heart, this episode is all about what we’ve been feeling—and what you might be feeling too. We dive into the Anniversary Effect —how our bodies seem to remember the hard stuff, even when we’re not consciously thinking about it. Whether it’s a headache that won’t quit, unexplained emotions, or just feeling off, your body has a way of keeping the score, even if your mind is on autopilot. We talk about grief, trauma, and the weird ways they stick with us, like an unwanted houseguest who doesn’t get the hint to leave. We reflect on the frustration of losing someone to suicide, the heartbreak of wondering “what if,” and the hope that comes from choosing to stay one more day. This episode isn’t polished or rehearsed—it’s just us, being real, because some conversations are too important to save for later. If you’re carrying something heavy or know someone who is, give this one a listen. You’re not alone in this.

In this episode of After the Tones Drop , we talk to Ryan Mink—former Army infantryman, law enforcement officer, and now a financial planner who actually gets it . This guy has seen it all, from the chaos of the battlefield to the mayhem of the streets, and now he’s using that hard-earned wisdom to help first responders stop screwing up their finances. Ryan’s no stranger to stress, and he’s using his unique background to show Ohio’s public servants how to plan for the future without losing their minds. We get into Ryan’s wild ride from first responder to financial planner, how he applies the same tactical thinking to your bank account, and why you should stop thinking of financial planning as just a bunch of numbers. It’s not just about dollars and cents—it’s about your whole well-being. That means mental, physical, and yeah, financial. Ryan also gets real about the stupid mistakes most first responders are making with their money. Like not having a will (yeah, it’s that common, don’t be an idiot) and blowing cash on insurance they don’t need. He’ll break down why understanding your pension is crucial, how to dodge the tax bullet, and how to build a plan that’ll take the stress out of life after the job. But here’s the kicker: it’s not just about the financial stuff. Ryan’s got a ton of insight on the personal side too. He’s helping people avoid burnout, navigate career transitions, and figure out what they’re gonna do when they walk away from the badge. If you’re a first responder—or you know one—who’s just tired of wondering where your money’s going or how you’ll retire without living off canned beans, this episode is for you. Ryan’s advice is straight-up, no fluff, and from someone who actually knows the pressure of the job.

Erin unpacks something that may seem straightforward but packs a huge punch: asking better questions. Whether you’re a first responder, a partner, or just trying to keep the peace over family dinner, the way we ask questions can make or break our connections. Erin walks us through the art of asking questions that aren’t just surface-level but actually open doors to understanding, respect, and real connection. This episode is all about taking a step back, checking your intent, and learning how to ask questions that bring calm and clarity rather than creating misunderstandings. She reviews seven tips to help you get it right, from setting clear intentions to avoiding assumptions. Want someone to really open up? Try asking in a way that doesn’t lead them to the answer. Erin gives real-life examples (her husband, bless his patience!) to show how effective questions can cut through the noise, especially when emotions are running high. And don’t worry, this isn’t just about being “nice”—it’s about fostering better conversations at work, at home, and online (yep, even through all the noise on social media). So, as we roll into the holidays and reunite with all the characters in our lives, let’s practice asking questions that don’t just make us feel heard but also help us hear others. Erin and Cinnamon also announce a break from Thanksgiving to the New Year. They’ll be back in 2025 with fresh content, but until then, go out there and give these tips a try. Stay curious, stay connected, and, as always, be kind to each other.

In this episode of After the Tones Drop , we share the powerful story of Chris, a deputy chief with over 30 years in the fire service, and his wife Tara, an educator with a 25-year career. Their journey has been marked by the challenges of a demanding career, mental health struggles, and the strength needed to maintain their marriage and family. Chris’s mental health struggles peaked in 2021 when he found himself on the brink of suicide. An unexpected comment from Tara and an intervention by their son and a park ranger saved his life, leading Chris to begin a journey of recovery and a mission to help other first responders avoid the same darkness. Tara shares her perspective as the supportive spouse, recognizing the signs of distress and standing by Chris through every step of his recovery. The couple discusses how the support Chris received at the Center of Excellence became a turning point, highlighting the power of connection and understanding. They emphasize that healing is an ongoing process, not a quick fix, and share the continuous efforts needed to maintain wellness after treatment. Chris and Tara offer practical advice for first responders and their families, stressing the importance of early conversations and strong support systems. Their story is a testament to resilience, love, and the importance of community. Whether you're a first responder, a spouse, or connected to the emergency services community, this episode offers hope and insight.

In this episode, Cinnamon takes us through a concept that’s as frustrating as it is relatable: foreboding joy . Ever had a moment of real happiness, only to be hit with a gut-punch of worry about when it’s all going to come crashing down? Yeah, that’s what we’re talking about. Dr. Brené Brown coined the term, and Cinnamon’s here to break it down for all the first responders out there who know the dance all too well. For first responders, foreboding joy is almost second nature. You finally get a quiet shift, a thank-you from someone you helped, or even a solid moment with your family—and bam! You’re already bracing for the next big hit. Cinnamon doesn’t sugarcoat it: this constant “waiting to get hit across the head by that proverbial 2x4” isn’t just annoying; it’s exhausting. But here’s the twist—she’s got some ways to help you actually enjoy those moments instead of worrying about when they’ll end. Cinnamon starts with the survival mode trap, something first responders know all too well. They’re trained to anticipate worst-case scenarios, which is essential for the job, but she challenges us to leave that mentality at the door when we get home. The first step in combatting foreboding joy is self-awareness—catching yourself in the act. If you’re mid-celebration and already thinking about what could go wrong, stop and acknowledge it. Becoming the observer, not the participant, helps break that spiral before it robs the moment. From there, she moves into the power of gratitude practice. According to Cinnamon (and Brené Brown), gratitude is the antidote to foreboding joy. But gratitude doesn’t come naturally when you’re constantly trained to look for threats; it’s a skill, and it takes work. Instead of letting worry ruin your joy, actively focus on what you’re grateful for in that moment. The goal? Enjoy the good moments without shrinking away from the risk of vulnerability. If you’re a first responder (or just someone who finds it tough to let yourself enjoy the good stuff), this episode is your wake-up call. Life’s short, the job’s tough, and moments of happiness are fleeting. So, when those moments come, go ahead—embrace them. Leave survival mode at the door and let joy be joy, even if it’s just for a minute. Because, let’s face it, life’s too damn short to spend it bracing for the worst.

Welcome back to another episode of After the Tones Drop! Today, we’re revisiting and re-releasing our second ever episode because, unfortunately, even after two years, the myths surrounding therapy are still holding on strong. Erin and Cinnamon dive deep into these misconceptions, especially within the first responder community. If you still think therapy is all about lying on a couch while a therapist silently nods, it’s time to bust that myth wide open. In this episode, we’re getting real about what therapy actually looks like—and more importantly, what it isn’t. Therapy isn’t just for people in crisis; it’s for anyone looking to maintain their mental health, process daily stressors, or have a safe space to talk things out. Think of it as similar to having a primary care doctor—it’s about prevention and maintenance, not just handling emergencies. Erin and Cinnamon break down the role of therapists and clear up misconceptions about what therapists actually do. Forget what you’ve seen on TV—therapists aren’t sitting there with a notebook, silently judging or diagnosing everyone. They’re there to support you, guide you, and help you find real solutions without judgment. And just like any other relationship, finding the right therapist might take some time. Erin and Cinnamon encourage listeners to “shop around” until they find a good fit, reminding us that therapy isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution. It’s more like dating—you might have to meet a few therapists before finding the one that clicks. A major myth they tackle is the idea that seeking therapy is a sign of weakness. They flip this narrative, emphasizing that reaching out for support takes real strength. Vulnerability isn’t easy, and it takes courage to say, “I don’t have all the answers.” Therapy isn’t about being weak; it’s about empowering yourself.

This episode isn’t your average fitness chat. Erin and Cinnamon sit down with Monica Crawford, the brains (and brawn) behind Five-O, Fierce, and Fit , an online fitness and nutrition coaching biz that’s all about getting female first responders strong, healthy, and thriving. Monica’s been through the ringer herself—working in a toxic police department that was tanking her mental and physical health—so she knows a thing or two about what it takes to pull yourself out of the gutter and level up. Monica’s story is classic: she was done with the toxic grind and ready for a change when a Facebook ad practically threw a business idea in her face. Fast forward, and now she’s running Five-O, Fierce, and Fit, helping women just like her navigate the chaos of shift work, admin headaches, and the pressures of staying fit in a field that doesn’t always play nice. And let’s be clear—Monica’s not here to sell you a one-size-fits-all solution. She’s got a custom plan for you based on your life, your goals, and the absolute mayhem that comes with the job. But here’s the twist: Monica’s “pyramid of priorities” isn’t what you might think. It starts with sleep (yeah, you read that right), then self-care, THEN nutrition, and finally, fitness. Why? Because if you’re running on fumes and think deadlifts are going to save you, you’re in for a rude awakening. Monica’s been there, done that, and she’s here to tell you—if you don’t have the foundation, you’re just digging yourself into a deeper hole. Her book, Thriving Inside the Thin Blue Line , gets real about the struggles women face in law enforcement—everything from emotional abuse to the constant battle to prove yourself. Pound for pound, women in this field have to be stronger, faster, and just plain tougher, and Monica’s all about leveling that playing field.

In this solo episode, Erin takes the mic to dive into the mental wrestling match we all know too well: good versus bad. Yeah, it seems simple—but let’s be real, life loves to kick us when we're down, and suddenly that “bad” can feel like the worst thing ever. But what if—hear us out—those same moments that seem impossible might just be the setup for something better? Erin doesn’t sugarcoat it—life can be a serious pain in the butt—but she’s all about flipping the script. It’s time to shift your mindset and see setbacks as setups for comebacks. Whether you're feeling the weight of everyday frustrations or stuck in a crap storm of epic proportions, Erin’s here to remind you that your response is key. She even shares a killer old fable (not as hokey as it sounds) that hits home on the whole 'we’ll see' approach to life’s curveballs. Plus, we get a reminder of how powerful mindfulness, grounding exercises, and post-traumatic growth can be. You might not control everything life throws your way, but you do control your narrative. Tune in to learn how to ride life's waves, own your mindset, and turn your obstacles into opportunities. Oh, and spoiler alert: Erin might challenge you to dance it out, even if you're not a dancer. Get ready for a mix of real talk, a little science, and a lot of "you’ve got this."

In this episode of After the Tones Drop , Erin and Cinnamon sit down with Keith Hanks, a retired firefighter and EMT who’s seen more chaos and tragedy than most of us can even imagine. Keith doesn't hold back. We're talking childhood trauma, losing his first wife, 21 years on the frontlines as a firefighter and EMT, and getting slammed with a diagnosis of complex PTSD. The guy’s been through hell, and he’s still standing, fighting to break the stigma around mental health, addiction, and suicide in the first responder world. Keith lays it all out—how the trauma he buried deep in his childhood started to surface when he was working the job. He opens up about the guilt and shame that haunted him for years, the pain that no one saw, and how all of it pushed him toward six suicide attempts. But instead of letting that be the end of his story, Keith turned it into fuel for change. He’s made it his mission to let other first responders know they don’t have to suffer in silence. Keith talks about his organization, Traumatic Strength , and how he’s out there giving first responders the tools to get real about their mental health. His new book, Allen —named after his own "alter ego," the part of him that fought through the worst of it—dives into his journey and reminds people that it’s okay to ask for help. Keith's a big, tough guy who’s not afraid to say, "Yeah, I went through some dark shit, but I’m still here." The conversation also hits on the importance of self-compassion and getting your head right. Keith’s big on mindfulness, therapy, and just doing the daily work. It’s not about being perfect—it’s about staying alive and finding a way to thrive. He’s even teaching his five-year-old daughter how to breathe through big emotions because, yeah, she’s gonna need those skills in this crazy world.

In this solo episode of After the Tones Drop , Cinnamon takes the mic to talk about a topic that might seem simple on the surface but is a huge issue for first responders—sleep. We all know sleep is important, but as Cinnamon explains, for those in the service, the lack of quality sleep goes far beyond just feeling tired. Sleep affects everything from mental health to decision-making and even physical recovery after those long, grueling shifts. Cinnamon dives deep into the mental health effects of poor sleep, explaining how it impacts memory, emotional regulation, and cognitive functioning. She shares how lack of sleep can lead to irritability and mood swings, making life harder not just at work, but also at home with your loved ones. She also explores how sleep deprivation affects physical recovery, from increasing your risk of injuries to compromising your immune system. Whether you’re a shift worker waking up in the middle of the night or just struggling to get restful sleep, Cinnamon provides real-world solutions to help improve your sleep quality. From creating a consistent sleep routine (even on your days off) to using tools like blackout curtains, eye masks, and apps like Sleep Cycle and Insight Timer, Cinnamon offers practical tips that can make a huge difference. Throughout the episode, Cinnamon shares from her own experiences and her work with clients, making it clear that sleep is not just a luxury—it’s essential for your mental, physical, and emotional well-being. If you’ve ever found yourself exhausted after a shift, snapping at loved ones, or wondering why you’re not bouncing back from injuries as quickly as you used to, this episode will hit home. Her advice is simple: pick one tip from the episode and try it. Whether it’s cutting back on caffeine, setting up a wind-down routine, or trying a new sleep app, eve We want to invite you to Join us and Dr. David Griffin from the Charleston 9 at the 28th Annual Jackson Fire Expo in Massillon, Ohio, on January 18 & 19!

In this episode of After the Tones Drop, Erin and Cinnamon take on a question from a hotline caller who is a newly minted 21-year-old firefighter who's asking something we don't hear often enough: “Should I even start drinking when I see what it does to everyone around me?” We know how it goes in the first responder world—drinking is practically a rite of passage. But what if it doesn’t have to be? What if you could dodge the hangovers, the regret, and the potential slide down a very slippery slope? That’s exactly what we’re getting into today. Erin and Cinnamon dive deep into a hot-button issue: alcohol use and its place in the culture of first responders. They're calling out the BS, like how not drinking can sometimes make you feel like an outsider or a “pussy” just because you’re smart enough to know the risks. They’ll also tackle some big questions—like, is swearing off booze just another extreme response to trauma, or is it a sign of wisdom beyond your years? And let’s talk boundaries—real boundaries. The kind that make people think twice before giving you grief for choosing not to drink. Erin and Cinnamon are here to tell you that being proactive about your mental health isn’t just okay—it’s essential. They’re laying it all out there: the good, the bad, and the ugly about why so many first responders use alcohol to cope, and why it’s perfectly okay if you don’t want to be another statistic. Plus, they’ll share a few laughs and stories about how they stay sober, stay sane, and still manage to be the most entertaining people in the room—without a drop of alcohol. Whether you’re someone who’s already sworn off the sauce or just thinking about cutting back, this episode’s for you. It’s real talk, straight from the heart of the first responder community, with a mix of humor, hard truths, and no-nonsense advice.
