As you watch what’s happening in the news, do you ever wonder how we got here? As a society? As an industry?

Joining this episode is Lt. Col. Dave Grossman, a US Army Ranger, paratrooper, and former West Point Psychology Professor. Since  retiring  from the military in 1998, he travels the country as one of the leading trainers for military, law enforcement, mental health providers, and school safety organizations.

On this episode, Dave joins host Steve Kellams to answer these questions and offers encouragement to the men and women putting on a police uniform every day.
