127: Never Forget: Remembering our Fallen, Riots in Chicago, and Raising Awareness w/ Haley (Five Oooh! podcast)

Blue Grit Radio : the Police Wellness, Leadership, Culture and Mindset podcast

I am joined by Haley an active police officer, the founder of Never Forgotten Clothing Co., and host of the Five OOOH! podcast.
After connecting and being interview on her show, I knew I had to flip the script (oh how the turn-tables have turned) and share her passion, perspective and personality with more of our community.
I am moved and inspired by how Haley demonstrates modeling a positive attitude, culture, and environment. We discuss her connection and deep friendship built with her partner, Officer Ella French, and our parallels in losing our battle buddies. This moves naturally into discussion of remembrance and honoring those who made the ultimate sacrifice in the best ways we can- and continuing on and promoting their stellar legacies.
We talk about being an example, women and minorities in policing, supporting those officers bullied, depressed and suicidal. We focus on police culture's status check: some of the ills we are facing across the country, and how one of the most tangible things we can do to elevate and support ourselves and each other... is to stop fighting ourselves and each other. This goes for you TROLLS- of all types! This is a must listen as we continue to invest in our profession in healthy, necessary, sustainable ways.

Haley Mirabelli is a dedicated active-duty police officer with a master’s degree in Public Safety Administration. A powerful female voice in the law enforcement community, Haley founded the Never Forgotten Clothing Company, which initially started as a clothing brand for first responders but has since grown into a thriving community. This platform allows first responders to share their stories, advocate for change, and shed light on the difficult realities of their profession.

Beyond just a brand, Never Forgotten has become a beacon for those who dream big, encouraging new recruits to join the force and connecting individuals with shared goals. Haley’s commitment to amplifying voices within her community also led her to launch the Five OOOH! Podcast, where she highlights local heroes and the stories that need to be heard.

With a focus on creating positive change, Haleylooks forward to continuing her mission of supporting and uplifting the first responder community.
