Workicide in Law Enforcement with Stephanie Kiesow
Manage episode 415727291 series 3436864
When Stephanie Kiesow hung up her badge and set her sights on academia, she carried with her the silent weight of a career in law enforcement, a weight many of her brothers and sisters in blue know all too well. In this episode, Stephanie, a former officer turned PhD student and author of "Workicide," offers an unguarded look into the mental health challenges that are all too common among those who serve and protect. Her book, a beacon of research and personal experience, guides us through the dark corridors of career-related mental health decline, providing a voice for those often left to suffer in silence.
The thin blue line is one that bears more than just crime and justice—it's a line threaded with personal sacrifice and an unspoken battle with the 'traumatic mind.' Through Stephanie's insights, we learn of the occupational hazards that go unseen: the mental health crises, the identity loss post-retirement, and the continuous exposure to trauma that can chip away at even the staunchest of hearts. It's a candid discussion on the need for resilience and the importance of fostering an identity beyond the uniform—crucial armor for those facing the daily emotional onslaught.
Our conversation takes a turn into the shadowy realms of Internal Affairs investigations, where the psychological toll on officers is as heavy as their badges. Stephanie illuminates the isolation and stigma that can arise during these inquiries, which can feel more like trials by fire than routine procedure. It's a compelling reminder of the critical need for robust support systems capable of guiding law enforcement personnel through their most vulnerable moments. Join us as we stand with Stephanie in advocating for a shift in how we care for our guardians behind the badge, ensuring they have the resources to protect their mental wellbeing with the same fervor they protect our communities.
