106 - On the Precipice: Ken Anderson

Text the Show or Leave a VoicemailToday we're talking to a medically retired police officer from the United Kingdom named Ken Anderson. Ken was a patrol officer, an instructor, and also a firearms officer in Leeds, England. But an accident on the job set him down a path that would eventually lead to him standing on a sea cliff, ready to end his life by throwing himself over the edge. In part one, we're going to get to know Ken, talk about his career, the accident, and the attempt to take his life. In part two, which I'll release one week later, we'll explore more about why this happens and how this has changed Ken.This episode contains discussion of depression that leads to a suicide attempt.
