About this listen
In this deeply thoughtful episode of The Coptimizer Podcast, Patrick Flannelly is joined by Erik Hein, a resilience expert and international trainer from the Netherlands, whose journey from hardship to high-performance leadership offers lessons for police professionals everywhere.
Erik opens up about his difficult upbringing — losing his father to cancer, growing up on the streets, and building himself up through martial arts and academic discipline. From these roots, Erik has forged a career in law enforcement training that blends resilience, mental skills, and tactical fitness with a global outlook on modern policing.
Together, Patrick and Erik examine:
- Mental toughness and the “soul over force” philosophy
- How learned helplessness shows up in policing
- Lessons from European police academies
- The U.S. attrition crisis and recruitment gaps
- How to foster supportive environments that build officer resilience
- The value of mentorship, wisdom transfer, and lifelong fitness
