About this listen

 This week on Triumph Beyond Trauma, Alice Stevenson joins the show to talk about the realities of medical discharge from the NSW Police Force—and the often hidden toll it takes on those going through it. Alice served for 10 years across a range of specialist units, including Kings Cross, Crash Investigation, and Crime Scene. After being medically discharged due to PTSD, she co-founded Signal 2 Support, a charity that helps police navigate the confusing and often isolating discharge process. In this honest and important conversation, Alice shares: What it’s really like to go through a medical discharge The gaps in support that officers commonly face How Signal 2 Support is helping to change the experience Why peer-led, independent help is so critical Whether you're in the early stages of discharge, supporting someone who is, or simply want to better understand the challenges facing first responders—this episode is full of practical insights and compassionate advice. 💬 If this episode resonates, please share it with someone who might need it. * Content Warning ** Due to the nature of this Podcast and the discussions that I have with Guests, I feel it's important to underline that there may be content within the episodes that have the potential to cause harm.
