Episode Details

I've been seeing something very disturbing in our circles of speakers, clinicians content generators... our "community."  In the wellness space for first responders, there is a disturbing trend: tribalism and negativity. This "cutting down culture" contradicts everything wellness is supposed to promote.  This person has the answer, these people certainly don't... these people are the problem, here is the solution... and so on.

Instead of lifting each other up, we often find ourselves tearing each other down, questioning motives, and doubting contributions.  We're all human, judgement runs high and I am no exception.  However, when the jobs are hard enough, when the danger is real enough, is this the best use of our energy?  How do we focus more on growth than cutting others down? How do we focus on more commonality and overlaps than differences and gaps?

In this episode I reflect more through this topic and offer tangible strategies of how to move through and move forward without getting stuck in the muck.

If you agree with what I'm seeing and saying, give it a listen and share it with your constructive people and circles.
