About this listen
In this final chapter of our conversation, Chris Green shares the full arc of his journey — from combat service and law enforcement to pursuing a doctorate in first responder psychology.
What begins as a reflection on career transitions quickly moves into deeper territory. Chris opens up about suicide ideation, shame, losing emotional connection on the job, and the moment he realized the badge had started to cost more than it was worth. The hard question emerges: at what cost do we keep going?
This episode is not about walking away from the profession. It's about understanding it. It's about the psychological toll of combat and policing, the silence that keeps so many trapped, and the power of education and vulnerability to change the trajectory.
Chris' path didn't end when he left the road. It evolved. And now his mission is helping first responders heal before they break.
If you've ever felt numb, angry, disconnected, or unsure who you are without the badge, this conversation is for you.
You're not broken. You're bruised. And there is a way forward.
